Description
Determines if one geometry object is entirely within another geometry object.
Syntax
MI_Within ( testGeometry, containerGeometry )
Arguments
containerGeometry and testGeometry are geometry objects (or expressions).
Example
Determines if one of the specified countries is entirely within the defined box.
select MI_Within([Geometry_Column],MI_Box(-13.36676789,8.05796847,79.06334219,62.70540978,'epsg:4326')) as theResult from countries where country = ANY ('Mauritania','Mali','Algeria')Remarks
Returns true if testGeometry is entirely within containerGeometry, false otherwise. If either testGeometry or containerGeometry are null, false is returned. The function is performed using the coordinate system of the first argument (testGeometry).
This is synonomous with MI_Contains (containerGeoemtry, testGeometry ).
