Geographic Database Functions

The functions documented on this page allow users to access geographic database functions to be used in annotations, aggregations, or filters in Django.

Example:

Python console
>>> from django.contrib.gis.db.models.functions import Length
>>> Track.objects.annotate(length=Length("line")).filter(length__gt=100)

Not all backends support all functions, so refer to the documentation of each function to see if your database backend supports the function you want to use. If you call a geographic function on a backend that doesn’t support it, you’ll get a NotImplementedError exception.

Centroid

class Centroid(expression, **extra)

Availability: MariaDB, MySQL, PostGIS, Oracle, SpatiaLite

Aceita um único campo geográfico ou expressão e retorna o valor do cetróide de uma geometria.

Difference

class Difference(expr1, expr2, **extra)

Availability: MariaDB, MySQL, PostGIS, Oracle, SpatiaLite

Accepts two geographic fields or expressions and returns the geometric difference, that is the part of geometry A that does not intersect with geometry B.

Distance

class Distance(expr1, expr2, spheroid=None, **extra)

Availability: MariaDB, MySQL, PostGIS, Oracle, SpatiaLite

Accepts two geographic fields or expressions and returns the distance between them, as a Distance object. On MySQL, a raw float value is returned when the coordinates are geodetic.

On backends that support distance calculation on geodetic coordinates, the proper backend function is automatically chosen depending on the SRID value of the geometries (e.g. ST_DistanceSphere on PostGIS).

When distances are calculated with geodetic (angular) coordinates, as is the case with the default WGS84 (4326) SRID, you can set the spheroid keyword argument to decide if the calculation should be based on a simple sphere (less accurate, less resource-intensive) or on a spheroid (more accurate, more resource-intensive).

In the following example, the distance from the city of Hobart to every other PointField in the AustraliaCity queryset is calculated:

Python console
>>> from django.contrib.gis.db.models.functions import Distance
>>> pnt = AustraliaCity.objects.get(name="Hobart").point
>>> for city in AustraliaCity.objects.annotate(distance=Distance("point", pnt)):
...     print(city.name, city.distance)
...
Wollongong 990071.220408 m
Shellharbour 972804.613941 m
Thirroul 1002334.36351 m
...

Envelope

GeoHash

class GeoHash(expression, precision=None, **extra)

The precision keyword argument controls the number of characters in the result.

GeometryDistance

class GeometryDistance(expr1, expr2, **extra)

Length

class Length(expression, spheroid=True, **extra)

Availability: MariaDB, MySQL, Oracle, PostGIS, SpatiaLite

Accepts a single geographic linestring or multilinestring field or expression and returns its length as a Distance measure.

On PostGIS and SpatiaLite, when the coordinates are geodetic (angular), you can specify if the calculation should be based on a simple sphere (less accurate, less resource-intensive) or on a spheroid (more accurate, more resource-intensive) with the spheroid keyword argument.

MySQL doesn’t support length calculations on geographic SRSes.

LineLocatePoint

class LineLocatePoint(linestring, point, **extra)

Availability: PostGIS, SpatiaLite
