ST_Disjoint()

Returns 1 when two geometries share no point.

Syntax

ST_Disjoint(geom1, geom2)

Aliases: none.

Arguments

geom1 and geom2 are GEOMETRY values.

Return Value

Returns BOOL.

Usage Notes

  • ST_Disjoint() is the logical opposite of ST_Intersects() for the same pair.

  • Both geometries must have the same SRID. Predicates are Cartesian (SRID 0), not geodetic SRID 4326 predicates.

Examples

DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS geo_disjoint_demo;
CREATE DATABASE geo_disjoint_demo;
USE geo_disjoint_demo;

SELECT ST_Disjoint(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(0 0)'), ST_GeomFromText('POINT(5 5)')) AS points_disjoint;

DROP DATABASE geo_disjoint_demo;
