geo_distance_point_to_line()

  • Άρθρο

Applies to: ✅ Microsoft Fabric ✅ Azure Data Explorer ✅ Azure Monitor ✅ Microsoft Sentinel

Calculates the shortest distance in meters between a coordinate and a line or multiline on Earth.

Syntax

geo_distance_point_to_line(longitude,latitude,lineString)

Learn more about syntax conventions.

Parameters

Name Type Required Description
longitude real ✔️ The geospatial coordinate longitude value in degrees. A valid value is in the range [-180, +180].
latitude real ✔️ The geospatial coordinate latitude value in degrees. A valid value is in the range [-90, +90].
lineString dynamic ✔️ A line or multiline in the GeoJSON format.

Returns

The shortest distance, in meters, between a coordinate and a line or multiline on Earth. If the coordinate or lineString are invalid, the query produces a null result.

Note

  • The geospatial coordinates are interpreted as represented by the WGS-84 coordinate reference system.
  • The geodetic datum used to measure distance on Earth is a sphere. Line edges are geodesics on the sphere.
  • If input line edges are straight cartesian lines, consider using geo_line_densify() in order to convert planar edges to geodesics.

LineString definition and constraints

dynamic({"type": "LineString","coordinates": [[lng_1,lat_1], [lng_2,lat_2],..., [lng_N,lat_N]]})

dynamic({"type": "MultiLineString","coordinates": [[line_1, line_2, ..., line_N]]})

  • LineString coordinates array must contain at least two entries.
  • Coordinates [longitude, latitude] must be valid where longitude is a real number in the range [-180, +180] and latitude is a real number in the range [-90, +90].
  • Edge length must be less than 180 degrees. The shortest edge between the two vertices is chosen.

Tip

  • Using literal LineString or a MultiLineString may result in better performance.
  • If you want to know the shortest distance between one or more points to many lines, consider folding these lines into one multiline. See the following example.

Examples

Shortest distance to airport

The following example finds the shortest distance between North Las Vegas Airport and a nearby road.

print distance_in_meters = geo_distance_point_to_line(-115.199625, 36.210419, dynamic({ "type":"LineString","coordinates":[[-115.115385,36.229195],[-115.136995,36.200366],[-115.140252,36.192470],[-115.143558,36.188523],[-115.144076,36.181954],[-115.154662,36.174483],[-115.166431,36.176388],[-115.183289,36.175007],[-115.192612,36.176736],[-115.202485,36.173439],[-115.225355,36.174365]]}))

Output
