st_union

Important

This feature is in Public Preview.

Returns the point-set union of the two input geometries as a 2D geometry.

For the corresponding Databricks SQL function, see st_union function.

Syntax

from pyspark.databricks.sql import functions as dbf

dbf.st_union(col1=<col1>, col2=<col2>)

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
col1 pyspark.sql.Column or str The first Geometry value.
col2 pyspark.sql.Column or str The second Geometry value.

Notes

The two geometries are expected to have the same SRID value, otherwise an error is returned.

Examples

from pyspark.databricks.sql import functions as dbf
df = spark.createDataFrame([('MULTIPOINT(EMPTY,4 3,5 6,-1 8)','POLYGON((0 0,10 0,0 10,0 0))',)], ['wkt1', 'wkt2'])
df.select(dbf.st_asewkt(dbf.st_union(dbf.st_geomfromtext('wkt1', 4326), dbf.st_geomfromtext('wkt2', 4326))).alias('result')).collect()
[Row(result='SRID=4326;GEOMETRYCOLLECTION(POINT(-1 8),POINT(5 6),POLYGON((0 0,0 10,10 0,0 0)))')]
