) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Returns a geometry that reflects an affine transformation of the input geometry.
Input geometry on which to perform the affine transformation.
A string value of TRUE causes translation to be performed; a string value of FALSE causes translation not to be performed. If this parameter is TRUE, translation is performed about the point at (tx,ty) or (tx,ty,tz).
X-axis value for translation.
Y-axis value for translation.
Z-axis value for translation.
A string value of TRUE causes scaling to be performed; a string value of FALSE causes scaling not to be performed.
Point on the input geometry about which to perform the scaling. If scaling is TRUE, this geometry should be either a zero point (point geometry with 0,0 or 0,0,0 ordinates for scaling about the origin) or a nonzero point (point geometry with ordinates for scaling about a point other than the origin). If scaling is FALSE, psc1 can be a null value.
X-axis value for scaling (about either the point specified in the psc1 parameter or the origin).
Y-axis value for scaling (about either the point specified in the psc1 parameter or the origin).
Z-axis value for scaling (about either the point specified in the psc1 parameter or the origin).
A string value of TRUE causes rotation to be performed; a string value of FALSE causes rotation not to be performed.
For two-dimensional geometries, rotation uses the p1 and angle values. For three-dimensional geometries, rotation uses either the angle and dir values or the line1 and angle values.
Point for two-dimensional geometry rotation about a specified point.
Line for rotation about a specified axis.
Angle rotation parameter (in radians) for rotation about a specified axis or about the X, Y, or Z axis.
Rotation parameter for x(0), y(1), or z(2)-axis roll. If the rotation parameter value is TRUE but the dir parameter is not used, specify a value of -1.
A string value of TRUE causes shearing to be performed; a string value of FALSE causes shearing not to be performed.
For two-dimensional geometries, shearing uses the shxy and shyx parameter values. For three-dimensional geometries, shearing uses the shxy, shyx, shxz, shzx, shyz, and shzy parameter values.
Value for shearing due to X along the Y direction.
Value for shearing due to Y along the X direction.
Value for shearing due to X along the Z direction (three-dimensional geometries only).
Value for shearing due to Z along the X direction (three-dimensional geometries only).
Value for shearing due to Y along the Z direction (three-dimensional geometries only).
Value for shearing due to Z along the Y direction (three-dimensional geometries only).
A string value of TRUE causes reflection to be performed; a string value of FALSE causes reflection not to be performed.
For two-dimensional geometries, reflection uses the lineR value for reflection about an axis and the pref value for the centroid for self-reflection. For three-dimensional geometries, reflection uses the lineR value for reflection about an axis; the dirR value for reflection about the yz, xz, and xy planes; the planeR, n, and bigD values for reflection about a specified plane; and the pref value for the centroid for self-reflection.
Point through which to perform reflection.
Line along which to perform reflection.
Number indicating the plane about (through) which to perform reflection: 0 for the yz plane, 1 for the xz plane, or 2 for the xy plane. If the reflection parameter value is TRUE but the dirR parameter is not used, specify a value of -1.
A string value of TRUE causes reflection about an arbitrary plane to be performed; a string value of FALSE causes reflection about an arbitrary plane not to be performed.
Normal vector of the plane.
Delta value for the plane equation in three-dimensional geometries.
For three-dimensional geometries, bigD = delta and n = (A,B,C) where n is the normal of the plane in three-dimensional space. Thus, the plane equation is:
Ax+By+Cz+bigD = 3DDotProd(n,anypointonplane)+bigD = 0
The order of affine transforms matter because these are matrix and vector multiplications.
You should validate the resulting geometry using the SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_GEOMETRY_WITH_CONTEXT function.
The following example performs an affine transformation on a two-dimensional geometry.

SDO_UTIL.APPEND(
geometry1 IN SDO_GEOMETRY,
geometry2 IN SDO_GEOMETRY
) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Appends one geometry to another geometry to create a new geometry.
Geometry object to which geometry2 is to be appended.
Geometry object to append to geometry1.
This function should be used only on geometries that do not have any spatial interaction (that is, on disjoint objects). If the input geometries are not disjoint, the resulting geometry might be invalid.
This function does not perform a union operation or any other computational geometry operation. To perform a union operation, use the SDO_GEOM.SDO_UNION function, which is described in Chapter 24. The APPEND function executes faster than the SDO_GEOM.SDO_UNION function.
The geometry type (SDO_GTYPE value) of the resulting geometry reflects the types of the input geometries and the append operation. For example, if the input geometries are two-dimensional polygons (SDO_GTYPE = 2003), the resulting geometry is a two-dimensional multipolygon (SDO_GTYPE = 2007).
An exception is raised if geometry1 and geometry2 are based on different coordinate systems.
The following example appends the cola_a and cola_c geometries. (The example uses the definitions and data from Section 2.1.)
SELECT SDO_UTIL.APPEND(c_a.shape, c_c.shape) FROM cola_markets c_a, cola_markets c_c WHERE c_a.name = 'cola_a' AND c_c.name = 'cola_c'; SDO_UTIL.APPEND(C_A.SHAPE,C_C.SHAPE)(SDO_GTYPE, SDO_SRID, SDO_POINT(X, Y, Z), SD -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SDO_GEOMETRY(2007, NULL, NULL, SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 1003, 3, 5, 1003, 1), SDO_ ORDINATE_ARRAY(1, 1, 5, 7, 3, 3, 6, 3, 6, 5, 4, 5, 3, 3))

start_point IN SDO_GEOMETRY,
end_point IN SDO_GEOMETRY,
tol IN NUMBER,
bearing OUT NUMBER,
tilt OUT NUMBER
) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Computes the bearing and tilt from a start point to an end point.
Starting point geometry object from which to compute the bearing and tilt. The point geometry must be based on a geodetic coordinate system.
Ending point geometry object to use in computing the bearing and tilt. The point geometry must be based on the same geodetic coordinate system as start_point.
Tolerance value (see Section 1.5.5).
Number of radians, measured clockwise from North.
Number of radians, measured from the normal.
The input point geometries must be based on the same geodetic coordinate system. If they are based on a non-geodetic coordinate system, the output bearing is a null value.
The tilt is computed as the arctangent of the difference between the height values divided by the distance between the points (with height excluded from the distance calculation). That is: tilt = atan(height_difference/distance)
To convert radians to decimal degrees or decimal degrees to radians, you can use the SDO_UTIL.CONVERT_UNIT function. To return a point geometry that is at a specified distance and bearing from a start point, you can use the SDO_UTIL.POINT_AT_BEARING function.
The following example computes the bearing and tilt for two longitude/latitude points, where the elevation of the start point is 0 (zero) and the elevation of the end point is 5000 meters. This example displays the bearing and tilt values in radians.

SDO_UTIL.CIRCLE_POLYGON(
center_longitude IN NUMBER,
center_latitude IN NUMBER,
radius IN NUMBER,
arc_tolerance IN NUMBER
) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Returns the polygon geometry that approximates and is covered by a specified circle.
Center longitude (in degrees) of the circle to be used to create the returned geometry.
Center latitude (in degrees) of the circle to be used to create the returned geometry.
Length (in meters) of the radius of the circle to be used to create the returned geometry.
A numeric value to be used to construct the polygon geometry. The arc_tolerance parameter value has the same meaning and usage guidelines as the arc_tolerance keyword value in the params parameter string for the SDO_GEOM.SDO_ARC_DENSIFY function. The unit of measurement associated with the geometry is associated with the arc_tolerance parameter value. (For more information, see the Usage Notes for the SDO_GEOM.SDO_ARC_DENSIFY function in Chapter 24.)
This function is useful for creating a circle-like polygon around a specified center point when a true circle cannot be used (a circle is not valid for geodetic data with Oracle Spatial). The returned geometry has an SDO_SRID value of 8307 (for Longitude / Latitude (WGS 84)).
The following example returns a circle-like polygon around a point near the center of Concord, Massachusetts. A radius value of 100 meters and an arc_tolerance value of 5 meters are used in computing the polygon vertices.

SDO_UTIL.CONCAT_LINES(
geom1 IN SDO_GEOMETRY,
geom2 IN SDO_GEOMETRY
) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Concatenates two line or multiline two-dimensional geometries to create a new geometry.
First geometry object for the concatenation operation.
Second geometry object for the concatenation operation.
Each input geometry must be a two-dimensional line or multiline geometry (that is, the SDO_GTYPE value must be 2002 or 2006). This function is not supported for LRS geometries. To concatenate LRS geometric segments, use the SDO_LRS.CONCATENATE_GEOM_SEGMENTS function (described in Chapter 25).
The input geometries must be line strings whose vertices are connected by straight line segments. Circular arcs and compound line strings are not supported.
If an input geometry is a multiline geometry, the elements of the geometry must be disjoint. If they are not disjoint, this function may return incorrect results.
The topological relationship between geom1 and geom2 must be DISJOINT or TOUCH; and if the relationship is TOUCH, the geometries must intersect only at two end points.
You can use the SDO_AGGR_CONCAT_LINES spatial aggregate function (described in Chapter 20) to concatenate multiple two-dimensional line or multiline geometries.
An exception is raised if geom1 and geom2 are based on different coordinate systems.
The following example concatenates two simple line string geometries.
-- Concatenate two touching lines: one from (1,1) to (5,1) and the

SDO_UTIL.CONVERT_UNIT(
input_value IN NUMBER,
from_unit IN VARCHAR2,
to_unit IN VARCHAR2
) RETURN NUMBER;
Converts values from one angle, area, or distance unit of measure to another.
Number of units to be converted. For example, to convert 10 decimal degrees to radians, specify 10.
The unit of measure from which to convert the input value. Must be a value from the SDO_UNIT column of the MDSYS.SDO_ANGLE_UNITS table (described in Section 6.8.2), the MDSYS.SDO_AREA_UNITS table (described in Section 2.10), or the MDSYS.SDO_DIST_UNITS table (described in Section 2.10). For example, to convert decimal degrees to radians, specify Degree.
The unit of measure into which to convert the input value. Must be a value from the SDO_UNIT column of the same table used for from_unit. For example, to convert decimal degrees to radians, specify Radian.
The value returned by this function might not be correct at an extremely high degree of precision because of the way internal mathematical operations are performed, especially if they involve small numbers or irrational numbers (such as pi). For example, converting 1 decimal degree into decimal minutes results in the value 60.0000017.
The following example converts 1 radian into decimal degrees.

SDO_UTIL.DROP_WORK_TABLES(
oidstr IN VARCHAR2);
Drops any transient ("scratch") tables and views in the current schema that were created during the creation of a point cloud or TIN.
Object ID string representing a hexadecimal number. Use the string given in the error message that indicated that scratch tables need to be dropped.
If scratch tables still exist from a previous SDO_PC_PKG.CREATE_PC or SDO_TIN_PKG.CREATE_TIN operation when you try to create a point cloud or TIN, an error message is displayed indicating that you must first drop the scratch tables. Use the SDO_UTIL.DROP_WORK_TABLES procedure to drop these scratch tables.
This procedure drops all tables and views that match 'M%_<oidstr>$$%'.
The following example drops the scratch tables from a previous SDO_PC_PKG.CREATE_PC or SDO_TIN_PKG.CREATE_TIN operation, using an OID string specified in a previous error message.

azimuth IN NUMBER,
arc_tolerance IN NUMBER
) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Returns the polygon geometry that approximates and is covered by a specified ellipse.
Center longitude (in degrees) of the ellipse to be used to create the returned geometry.
Center latitude (in degrees) of the ellipse to be used to create the returned geometry.
Length (in meters) of the semi-major axis of the ellipse to be used to create the returned geometry.
Length (in meters) of the semi-minor axis of the ellipse to be used to create the returned geometry.
Number of degrees of the azimuth (clockwise rotation of the major axis from north) of the ellipse to be used to create the returned geometry. Must be from 0 to 180. The returned geometry is rotated by the specified number of degrees.
A numeric value to be used to construct the polygon geometry. The arc_tolerance parameter value has the same meaning and usage guidelines as the arc_tolerance keyword value in the params parameter string for the SDO_GEOM.SDO_ARC_DENSIFY function. The unit of measurement associated with the geometry is associated with the arc_tolerance parameter value. (For more information, see the Usage Notes for the SDO_GEOM.SDO_ARC_DENSIFY function in Chapter 24.)
This function is useful for creating an ellipse-like polygon around a specified center point when a true ellipse cannot be used (an ellipse is not valid for geodetic data with Oracle Spatial). The returned geometry has an SDO_SRID value of 8307 (for Longitude / Latitude (WGS 84)).
The following example returns an ellipse-like polygon, oriented east-west (azimuth = 90), around a point near the center of Concord, Massachusetts. An arc_tolerance value of 5 meters is used in computing the polygon vertices.

Number of the element in the geometry: 1 for the first element, 2 for the second element, and so on. Geometries with SDO_GTYPE values (explained in Section 2.2.1) ending in 1, 2, or 3 have one element; geometries with SDO_GTYPE values ending in 4, 5, 6, or 7 can have more than one element. For example, a multipolygon with an SDO_GTYPE of 2007 might contain three elements (polygons).
Number of the subelement (ring) within element: 1 for the first subelement, 2 for the second subelement, and so on. This parameter is valid only for specifying a subelement of a polygon with one or more holes or of a point cluster:
For a polygon with holes, its first subelement is its exterior ring, its second subelement is its first interior ring, its third subelement is its second interior ring, and so on. For example, in the polygon with a hole shown in Figure 2-4 in Section 2.7.2, the exterior ring is subelement 1 and the interior ring (the hole) is subelement 2.
For a point cluster, its first subelement is the first point in the point cluster, its second subelement is the second point in the point cluster, and so on.
The default is 0, which causes the entire element to be extracted.
This function applies to two-dimensional geometries only. For three-dimensional geometries, use the SDO_UTIL.EXTRACT3D function.
This function is useful for extracting a specific element or subelement from a complex geometry. For example, if you have identified a geometry as invalid by using the SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_GEOMETRY_WITH_CONTEXT function or the SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_LAYER_WITH_CONTEXT procedure (both of which are documented in Chapter 24), you can use the EXTRACT function to extract the invalid geometry in order to examine it.
For a polygon with one or more holes, the returned geometry representing an extracted interior ring is reoriented so that its vertices are presented in counterclockwise order (as opposed to the clockwise order within an interior ring).
If geometry is null or has an SDO_GTYPE value ending in 0, this function returns a null geometry.
geometry cannot contain a type 0 (zero) element. Type 0 elements are described in Section 2.7.7.
This function is not intended for use with geometries that have any null ordinate values. Any null ordinate values in the returned geometry are replaced by 0 (zero).
An exception is raised if element or ring is an invalid number for geometry.
The following example extracts the first (and only) element in the cola_c geometry. (The example uses the definitions and data from Section 2.1.)
SELECT c.name, SDO_UTIL.EXTRACT(c.shape, 1) FROM cola_markets c WHERE c.name = 'cola_c'; NAME -------------------------------- SDO_UTIL.EXTRACT(C.SHAPE,1)(SDO_GTYPE, SDO_SRID, SDO_POINT(X, Y, Z), SDO_ELEM_IN -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- cola_c SDO_GEOMETRY(2003, NULL, NULL, SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 1003, 1), SDO_ORDINATE_ARR AY(3, 3, 6, 3, 6, 5, 4, 5, 3, 3))
The following example inserts a polygon with a hole (using the same INSERT statement as in Example 2-7 in Section 2.7.2), and extracts the geometry representing the hole (the second subelement). Notice that in the geometry returned by the EXTRACT function, the vertices are in counterclockwise order, as opposed to the clockwise order in the hole (second subelement) in the input geometry.

SDO_UTIL.EXTRACT_ALL(

) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY_ARRAY;
Returns all elements and subelements of the input two-dimensional geometry, as an array of one or more geometries. Returns an object of type SDO_GEOMETRY_ARRAY, which is defined as VARRAY OF SDO_GEOMETRY.
Geometry from which to extract all elements and subelements. Must be a two-dimensional geometry.
A flag indicating whether to "flatten" rings into individual geometries for geometries that contain an exterior ring and one or more interior rings:
0 (zero) returns one geometry for each element, but does not flatten rings into individual geometries. (A geometry will still be returned for each element of the input geometry.)
1 (the default) or any other nonzero value flattens rings into individual geometries.
For example, if a polygon contains an outer ring and an inner ring, a value of 0 returns a single geometry containing both rings, and a value of 1 returns two geometries, each containing a ring as a geometry.
This parameter is ignored for geometries that do not contain an exterior ring and one or more interior rings.
This function applies to two-dimensional geometries only. For three-dimensional geometries, use the SDO_UTIL.EXTRACT3D function.
This function enables you to extract all elements and subelements from a geometry, regardless of how many elements and subelements the geometry has. Geometries with SDO_GTYPE values (explained in Section 2.2.1) ending in 1, 2, or 3 have one element; geometries with SDO_GTYPE values ending in 4, 5, 6, or 7 can have more than one element. For example, a multipolygon with an SDO_GTYPE of 2007 might contain three elements (polygons). To extract individual elements, use the SDO_UTIL.EXTRACT function instead.
For a polygon with one or more holes, with the default value for the flatten parameter, the returned geometry representing an extracted interior ring is reoriented so that its vertices are presented in counterclockwise order (as opposed to the clockwise order within an interior ring). However, if the flatten parameter value is 0, no reorientation is performed.
If geometry is null or has an SDO_GTYPE value ending in 0, this function returns a null geometry.
geometry cannot contain a type 0 (zero) element. Type 0 elements are described in Section 2.7.7.
This function is not intended for use with geometries that have any null ordinate values. Any null ordinate values in the returned geometry are replaced by 0 (zero).
The following example extracts all elements from the cola_b geometry. (The example uses the definitions and data from Section 2.1.)

The following example extracts all elements and subelements from the polygon_with_hole geometry (inserted in the preceding example), and it specifies the flatten parameter value as 0 (zero). This causes the returned array to contain a single geometry that is the same as the input geometry; thus, in the geometry returned by the EXTRACT_ALL function, the vertices are in same clockwise order in the hole (second subelement) as in the input geometry.

SDO_UTIL.EXTRACT3D(

) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Returns the three-dimensional geometry that represents a specified subset of the input three-dimensional geometry.
Geometry from which to extract the geometry to be returned. Must be a three-dimensional geometry
A comma-delimited string of numbers that identify the subset geometry to be returned. Each number identifies the relative position of a geometry item within the input geometry. The items and their positions within the label string are:
pointID: Point number
edgeID: Edge number
ringID: Ring number
polygonID: Polygon number
csurfID: Composite surface number
solidID: Solid number
multiID: Multisolid number
A value of 0 (zero) means that the item does not apply, and you can omit trailing items that do not apply. For example, '0,2,1,4,1' means that point number does not apply, and it specifies the second edge of the first ring of the fourth polygon of the first composite surface.
This function applies to three-dimensional geometries only. For two-dimensional geometries, use the SDO_UTIL.EXTRACT function.
This function uses the getElementByLabel method of the oracle.spatial.geometry.ElementExtractor Java class, which is described in Oracle Spatial Java API Reference.
The following example extracts, from a specified three-dimensional geometry, the subset geometry consisting of the following: edge 2 of ring 1 of polygon 4 of composite surface 1 of the input geometry.

Returns the three-dimensional extrusion solid geometry from an input two-dimensional polygon geometry.
Two-dimensional polygon geometry from which to return the extrusion geometry. This geometry forms the "base" of the returned geometry.
Ground heights as a set of Z (height) values at the base of the solid. The numbers in this array should be the Z (height) values at the base of each vertex in the input geometry.
Height values for the extrusion geometry. The numbers in this array should be the Z (height) values at the "top" of each corresponding point in the grdheight array. For example, if the ground height at the base of the first vertex is 0 and the height at that vertex is 10, the solid at that point along the base extends 10 units high.
Tolerance value (see Section 1.5.5).
Three-dimensional coordinate system (SRID) to be assigned to the returned geometry. If you do not specify this parameter, Spatial automatically assigns a three-dimensional SRID value based on the SRID value of the input geometry.
The input geometry must be a two-dimensional polygon geometry.
If the input geometry is a polygon with multiple inner rings, this function internally combines these inner rings to make them one inner ring, producing a new geometry that approximately represents the original appearance; the function then performs the extrusion process on this new geometry, and returns the result.
The following example returns the three-dimensional solid geometry representing an extrusion from a two-dimensional polygon geometry.

Returns the coordinates of the vertices of the input geometry.
Geometry for which to return the coordinates of the vertices.
This function returns an object of MDSYS.VERTEX_SET_TYPE, which consists of a table of objects of MDSYS.VERTEX_TYPE. Oracle Spatial defines the type VERTEX_SET_TYPE as:
CREATE TYPE vertex_set_type as TABLE OF vertex_type;
Oracle Spatial defines the object type VERTEX_TYPE as:
CREATE TYPE vertex_type AS OBJECT

Note:
The VERTEX_SET_TYPE and VERTEX_TYPE types are intended for use by Oracle only. Do not use these types in column definitions or functions that you create.This function can be useful in finding a vertex that is causing a geometry to be invalid. For example, if you have identified a geometry as invalid by using the SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_GEOMETRY_WITH_CONTEXT function or the SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_LAYER_WITH_CONTEXT procedure (both of which are documented in Chapter 24), you can use the GETVERTICES function to view the vertices in tabular format.
The following example returns the X and Y coordinates and ID values of the vertices of the geometries in the SHAPE column of the COLA_MARKETS table. (The example uses the definitions and data from Section 2.1.)

SDO_UTIL.INITIALIZE_INDEXES_FOR_TTS;
Initializes all spatial indexes in a tablespace that was transported to another database.
None.
This procedure is part of the support for using the Oracle transportable tablespace feature with tablespaces that contain any spatial indexes. Use this procedure only either (A) the import operation of pre-Release 11.2 dump files is completed, or (B) after the import operation from different endian platform in Release 11.2 or later is completed. Each user that has a spatial index in the tablespace must call the procedure.
For pre-Release 11.2 dump files, after calling the SDO_UTIL.INITIALIZE_INDEXES_FOR_TTS procedure, you must execute a statement in the following format for each index that is in the imported transportable tablespace:
ALTER INDEX spatial-index-from-imported-tts PARAMETERS ('CLEAR_TTS=TRUE');
For detailed information about transportable tablespaces and transporting tablespaces to other databases, see Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.
The following example for an import of pre-Release 11.2 dump files initializes all spatial indexes in a tablespace that was transported to another database. It also includes the required ALTER INDEX statement for two hypothetical spatial indexes.
CALL SDO_UTIL.INITIALIZE_INDEXES_FOR_TTS;
ALTER INDEX xyz1_spatial_idx PARAMETERS ('CLEAR_TTS=TRUE');
ALTER INDEX xyz2_spatial_idx PARAMETERS ('CLEAR_TTS=TRUE');
In the following example, the owner of the spatial index must call the SDO_UTIL.INITIALIZE_INDEXES_FOR_TTS procedure only if the SELECT statement returns the string Y, to reflect the fact that the spatial indexes are imported from different endian platforms in Release 11.2.
SELECT DECODE(BITAND(sdo_index_version, 1024), 1024, 'Y', 'N') ENDIAN_FLAG FROM user_sdo_index_metadata WHERE sdo_index_name = :index_name; -- If the result is 'Y', perform the next statement. CALL SDO_UTIL.INITIALIZE_INDEXES_FOR_TTS; -- No ALTER INDEX statements are needed.
In this example, if you call the SDO_UTIL.INITIALIZE_INDEXES_FOR_TTS procedure when the SELECT statement returns the string N, the procedure does nothing because there is no need to perform endian conversion.
None.
SDO_UTIL.INTERIOR_POINT(
geom IN SDO_GEOMETRY,
tol IN NUMBER DEFAULT 0.00000000005
) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Returns a point that is guaranteed to be an interior point (not on the boundary or edge) on the surface of a polygon geometry object.
Polygon geometry object. The SDO_GTYPE value of the geometry must be 2003 or 2007. (SDO_GTYPE values are explained in Section 2.2.1.)
Tolerance value (see Section 1.5.5).
This function returns a point geometry object representing a point that is guaranteed to be an interior point on the surface, but not on the boundary or edge, of geom. The returned point can be any interior point on the surface; however, if you call the function multiple times with the same geom and tol parameter values, the returned point will be the same.
The relationship between the returned point and the original geometry is INSIDE, which you can check using the SDO_RELATE operator with'mask=inside'.
In most cases this function is more useful than the SDO_GEOM.SDO_POINTONSURFACE function, which returns a point that is not guaranteed to be an interior point.
The following example returns a geometry object that is an interior point on the surface of cola_a. (The example uses the definitions and data from Section 2.1.)
-- Return an interior point on the surface of a geometry. SELECT SDO_UTIL.INTERIOR_POINT(c.shape, 0.005) FROM cola_markets c WHERE c.name = 'cola_a'; SDO_UTIL.INTERIOR_POINT(C.SHAPE,0.005)(SDO_GTYPE, SDO_SRID, SDO_POINT(X, Y, Z), -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SDO_GEOMETRY(2001, NULL, SDO_POINT_TYPE(2.75, 2.875, NULL), NULL, NULL)

SDO_UTIL.POINT_AT_BEARING(
start_point IN SDO_GEOMETRY,
bearing IN NUMBER,
distance IN NUMBER
) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Returns a point geometry that is at the specified distance and bearing from the start point.
Point geometry object from which to compute the distance at the specified bearing, to locate the desired point. The point geometry must be based on a geodetic coordinate system.
Number of radians, measured clockwise from North. Must be in the range of either -pi to pi or 0 to 2*pi. (Either convention on ranges will work).
Number of meters from start_point and along the initial bearing direction to the computed destination point. Must be less than one-half the circumference of the Earth.
The input point geometry must be based on a geodetic coordinate system. If it is based on a non-geodetic coordinate system, this function returns a null value.
To convert decimal degrees to radians or nonmetric distances to meters, you can use the SDO_UTIL.CONVERT_UNIT function. To compute the bearing and tilt from a start point to an end point, you can use the SDO_UTIL.BEARING_TILT_FOR_POINTS procedure.
The following example returns the point 100 kilometers at a bearing of 1 radian from the point with the longitude and latitude coordinates (-72, 43).

Converts all polygon-type elements in a geometry to line-type elements, and sets the SDO_GTYPE value accordingly.
Geometry to convert.
The order of the vertices of each resulting line-type element is the same as in the associated polygon-type element, and the start and end points of each line-type segment are the same point.
If the input geometry is a line, it is returned.
The following example converts the input polygon geometry, which is the same geometry as cola_b (see Figure 2-1 and Example 2-1 in Section 2.1), to a line string geometry. In the returned geometry, the SDO_GTYPE value (2002) indicates a two-dimensional LINE geometry, and the SDO_ETYPE value (2) and SDO_INTERPRETATION value (1) in the SDO_ELEM_INFO array indicate a line string whose vertices are connected by straight line segments.

Effective with Oracle Database Release 11.2, this procedure is deprecated. You do not need to call the PREPARE_FOR_TTS procedure before performing a transportable tablespace export operation.
For detailed information about transportable tablespaces and transporting tablespaces to other databases, see Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.

SDO_UTIL.RECTIFY_GEOMETRY(
geometry IN SDO_GEOMETRY,
tolerance IN NUMBER
) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Fixes certain problems with the input geometry, and returns a valid geometry.
Geometry to be checked for problems that can be fixed.
Tolerance value (see Section 1.5.5).
This function checks for the following problems that can make a geometry invalid, and fixes the problems in the returned geometry:
Duplicate vertices
Polygon boundary intersecting itself
Incorrect orientation of exterior or interior rings (or both) of a polygon
If the input geometry has any other problem that makes it invalid, the function raises an exception.
If the input geometry is valid, the function returns a geometry that is identical to the input geometry.
For information about using this function as part of the recommended procedure for loading and validating spatial data, see Section 4.3.
This function is used internally by the SDO_UTIL.SIMPLIFY function as part of the geometry simplification process.
The following example checks the cola_b geometry to see if it has problems that can be fixed. (In this case, the geometry is valid, so the input geometry is returned. The example uses the definitions and data from Section 2.1.)

SDO_UTIL.REMOVE_DUPLICATE_VERTICES
geometry IN SDO_GEOMETRY,
tolerance IN NUMBER
) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Removes duplicate (redundant) vertices from a geometry.
Geometry from which to remove duplicate vertices.
Tolerance value (see Section 1.5.5).
When two consecutive vertices in a geometry are the same or within the tolerance value associated with the geometry, Spatial considers the geometry to be invalid. The Spatial geometry validation functions return the error ORA-13356 in these cases. You can use the REMOVE_DUPLICATE_VERTICES function to change such invalid geometries into valid geometries.
This function also closes polygons so that the first vertex of the ring is the same as the last vertex of the ring.
This function is not supported for any point geometries (including oriented points).
If the input geometry does not contain any duplicate vertices, it is returned.
The following example removes a duplicate vertex from the input geometry, which is the same geometry as cola_b (see Figure 2-1 and Example 2-1 in Section 2.1) except that it has been deliberately made invalid by adding a third vertex that is the same point as the second vertex (8,1).

Line string geometry whose vertices are to be reversed in the output geometry. The SDO_GTYPE value of the input geometry must be 2002. (Section 2.2.1 explains SDO_GTYPE values.)
Because the SDO_GTYPE value of the input geometry must be 2002, this function cannot be used to reverse LRS geometries. To reverse an LRS geometry, use the SDO_LRS.REVERSE_GEOMETRY function, which is described in Chapter 25.

) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;
Simplifies the input geometry, based on a threshold value, using the Douglas-Peucker algorithm.
Geometry to be simplified.
Threshold value to be used for the geometry simplification. Should be a positive number. (Zero causes the input geometry to be returned.) If the input geometry is geodetic, the value is the number of meters; if the input geometry is non-geodetic, the value is the number of units associated with the data.
As the threshold value is decreased, the returned geometry is likely to be closer to the input geometry; as the threshold value is increased, fewer points are likely to be in the returned geometry. See the Usage Notes for more information.
Tolerance value (see Section 1.5.5). Must not be greater than threshold; and for better performance, should not be the same as threshold. If you do not specify a value, the default value is 0.0000005.
This function also convert arcs to line stings, eliminates duplicate vertices, and corrects many overlapping edge polygon problems. The reason this function sometimes fixes problems is that it internally calls the SDO_UTIL.RECTIFY_GEOMETRY function at the end of the simplification process to ensure that a valid geometry is returned.
This function is useful when you want a geometry with less fine resolution than the original geometry. For example, if the display resolution cannot show the hundreds or thousands of turns in the course of a river or in a political boundary, better performance might result if the geometry were simplified to show only the major turns.
If you use this function with geometries that have more than two dimensions, only the first two dimensions are used in processing the query, and only the first two dimensions in the returned geometry are to be considered valid and meaningful. For example, the measure values in a returned LRS geometry will probably not reflect actual measures in that geometry. In this case, depending on your application needs, you might have several options after the simplification operation, such as ignoring the new measure values or redefining the new LRS geometry to reset the measure values.
This function uses the Douglas-Peucker algorithm, which is explained in several cartography textbooks and reference documents. (In some explanations, the term tolerance is used instead of threshold; however, this is different from the Oracle Spatial meaning of tolerance.)
The returned geometry can be a polygon, line, or point, depending on the geometry definition and the threshold value. The following considerations apply:
A polygon can simplify to a line or a point and a line can simplify to a point, if the threshold value associated with the geometry is sufficiently large. For example, a thin rectangle will simplify to a line if the distance between the two parallel long sides is less than the threshold value, and a line will simplify to a point if the distance between the start and end points is less than the threshold value.
In a polygon with a hole, if the exterior ring or the interior ring (the hole) simplifies to a line or a point, the interior ring disappears from (is not included in) the resulting geometry.
Topological characteristics of the input geometry might not be maintained after simplification. For a collection geometry, the number of elements might increase, to prevent overlapping of individual elements. In all cases, this function will not return an invalid geometry.
The following example simplifies the road shown in Figure 7-20 in Section 7.7. Because the threshold value (6) is fairly large given the input geometry, the resulting LRS line string has only three points: the start and end points, and (12, 4,12). The measure values in the returned geometry are not meaningful, because this function considers only two dimensions.

SDO_UTIL.TO_GML311GEOMETRY(
thegeom IN SDO_GEOMETRY
) RETURN CLOB;
Converts a Spatial geometry object to a geography markup language (GML version 3.1.1) fragment based on the geometry types defined in the Open GIS geometry.xsd schema document.
Geometry for which to return the GML version 3.1.1 fragment.
This function does not convert circles, geometries containing any circular arcs, LRS geometries, or geometries with an SDO_ETYPE value of 0 (type 0 elements); it returns an empty CLOB in these cases.
This function converts the input geometry to a GML version 3.1.1 fragment based on some GML geometry types defined in the Open GIS Implementation Specification.
Polygons must be defined using the conventions for Oracle9i and later releases of Spatial. That is, the outer boundary is stored first (with ETYPE=1003) followed by zero or more inner boundary elements (ETYPE=2003). For a polygon with holes, the outer boundary must be stored first in the SDO_ORDINATES definition, followed by coordinates of the inner boundaries.
LRS geometries must be converted to standard geometries (using the SDO_LRS.CONVERT_TO_STD_GEOM or SDO_LRS.CONVERT_TO_STD_LAYER function) before being passed to the TO_GMLGEOMETRY function. (See the Examples section for an example that uses CONVERT_TO_STD_GEOM with the TO_GMLGEOMETRY function.)
Any circular arcs or circles must be densified (using the SDO_GEOM.SDO_ARC_DENSIFY function) or represented as polygons (using the SDO_GEOM.SDO_BUFFER function) before being passed to the TO_GMLGEOMETRY function. (See the Examples section for an example that uses SDO_ARC_DENSIFY with the TO_GMLGEOMETRY function.)
Label points are discarded. That is, if a geometry has a value for the SDO_POINT field and values in SDO_ELEM_INFO and SDO_ORDINATES, the SDO_POINT is not output in the GML fragment.
The SDO_SRID value is output in the form srsName="SDO:<srid>". For example, "SDO:8307" indicates SDO_SRID 8307, and "SDO:" indicates a null SDO_SRID value. No checks are made for the validity or consistency of the SDO_SRID value. For example, the value is not checked to see if it exists in the MDSYS.CS_SRS table or if it conflicts with the SRID value for the layer in the USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view.
Coordinates are always output using the <coordinates> tag and decimal='.', cs=',' (that is, with the comma as the coordinate separator), and ts=' ' (that is, with a space as the tuple separator), even if the NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS setting has ',' (comma) as the decimal character.
The GML output is not formatted; there are no line breaks or indentation of tags. To see the contents of the returned CLOB in SQL*Plus, use the TO_CHAR() function or set the SQL*Plus parameter LONG to a suitable value (for example, SET LONG 40000). To get formatted GML output or to use the return value of TO_GMLGEOMETRY in SQLX or Oracle XML DB functions such as XMLELEMENT, use the XMLTYPE(clobval CLOB) constructor.

SDO_UTIL.TO_KMLGEOMETRY(
geometry IN SDO_GEOMETRY
) RETURN CLOB;
Converts a Spatial geometry object to a KML (Keyhole Markup Language) document.
Geometry for which to return the KML document.
This function does not convert circles, geometries containing any circular arcs, LRS geometries, or geometries with an SDO_ETYPE value of 0 (type 0 elements); it returns an empty CLOB in these cases.
Polygons must be defined using the conventions for Oracle9i and later releases of Spatial. That is, the outer boundary is stored first (with ETYPE=1003) followed by zero or more inner boundary elements (ETYPE=2003). For a polygon with holes, the outer boundary must be stored first in the SDO_ORDINATES definition, followed by coordinates of the inner boundaries.
LRS geometries must be converted to standard geometries (using the SDO_LRS.CONVERT_TO_STD_GEOM or SDO_LRS.CONVERT_TO_STD_LAYER function) before being passed to the TO_KMLGEOMETRY function.
Any circular arcs or circles must be densified (using the SDO_GEOM.SDO_ARC_DENSIFY function) or represented as polygons (using the SDO_GEOM.SDO_BUFFER function) before being passed to the TO_KMLGEOMETRY function.
Label points are discarded. That is, if a geometry has a value for the SDO_POINT field and values in SDO_ELEM_INFO and SDO_ORDINATES, the SDO_POINT is not output in the KML document.
Solid geometries are converted to KML MultiGeometry objects, because KML 2.1 does not support solids. If you then use the SDO_UTIL.FROM_KMLGEOMETRY function on the MultiGeometry, the result is not an Oracle Spatial solid geometry (that is, its SDO_GTYPE value does not reflect a geometry type of SOLID or MULTISOLID).
The KML output is not formatted; there are no line breaks or indentation of tags. To see the contents of the returned CLOB in SQL*Plus, use the TO_CHAR() function or set the SQL*Plus parameter LONG to a suitable value (for example, SET LONG 2000). To get formatted GML output or to use the return value of TO_KMLGEOMETRY in SQLX or Oracle XML DB functions such as XMLELEMENT, use the XMLTYPE(clobval CLOB) constructor.
The following example shows conversion to and from KML format. (The example uses the definitions and data from Section 2.1, specifically the cola_c geometry from the COLA_MARKETS table.)

To be valid, the input geometry must be in the well-known binary (WKB) format, as defined by the Open Geospatial Consortium and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
This function is patterned after the SQL Multimedia recommendations in ISO 13249-3, Information technology - Database languages - SQL Multimedia and Application Packages - Part 3: Spatial.
To validate a geometry in the well-known text (WKT) format, use the SDO_UTIL.VALIDATE_WKTGEOMETRY function.
The following example shows conversion to and from WKB and WKT format, and validation of WKB and WKT geometries. (The example uses the definitions and data from Section 2.1, specifically the cola_b geometry from the COLA_MARKETS table.)
DECLARE
wkbgeom BLOB;
wktgeom CLOB;
val_result VARCHAR2(5);
geom_result SDO_GEOMETRY;
geom SDO_GEOMETRY;
BEGIN
SELECT c.shape INTO geom FROM cola_markets c WHERE c.name = 'cola_b';
-- To WBT/WKT geometry
wkbgeom := SDO_UTIL.TO_WKBGEOMETRY(geom);
wktgeom := SDO_UTIL.TO_WKTGEOMETRY(geom);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('To WKT geometry result = ' || TO_CHAR(wktgeom));
-- From WBT/WKT geometry
