Hi.
I am trying to determine if some lat/longs stored in a database are
contained within a defined polygon using the very nice builtin operators
and types of postgresql; to wit,
gds2=> select count(*) from master where point '(latitude,longitude)' @
polygon
'(
(3200000,10200000),(3187500,10262500),(3112500,10230000),(3112500,10187500),(3200000,10200000))';
ERROR: Bad point external representation '(latitude,longitude)'
ERROR: Bad point external representation '(latitude,longitude)'
I have tried several variations on this theme to no avail. What am I
doing wrong?
I am using version 6.5.2, latitude and longitude are float.
Thank you for your help.
