[!INCLUDE SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance FabricSQLDB]
Returns 1 if a geometry instance is related to another geometry instance, where the relationship is defined by a Dimensionally Extended 9 Intersection Model (DE-9IM) pattern matrix value; otherwise, returns 0.
.STRelate ( other_geometry, intersection_pattern_matrix )
other_geometry
Is another geometry instance to compare against the instance on which STRelate() is invoked.
intersection_pattern_matrix
Is a string of type nchar(9) encoding acceptable values for the DE-9IM pattern matrix device between the two geometry instances.
This method always returns null if the spatial reference IDs (SRIDs) of the geometry instances do not match. This method will throw an ArgumentException if the matrix isn't well formed.
[!INCLUDEssNoVersion] return type: bit
CLR return type: SqlBoolean
The following example uses STRelate() to test two geometry instances for spatial disjoint using an explicit DE-9IM pattern.
DECLARE @g geometry;
DECLARE @h geometry;
SET @g = geometry::STGeomFromText('LINESTRING(0 2, 2 0, 4 2)', 0);
SET @h = geometry::STGeomFromText('POINT(5 5)', 0);
SELECT @g.STRelate(@h, 'FF*FF****');
