ST_GeometryN

Applies to ❌ Open Source Edition   ✅ Express Edition   ✅ Professional Edition   ✅ Enterprise Edition

This function returns the N-th geometry (1-based) from a geometry that contains multiple nested geometries.

create.select(stGeometryN(stGeomFromText("MULTIPOINT ((-1 -1), (1 -1), (1 1), (-1 1))"), 2)).fetch();

The result being, for example

+--------------+
| ST_GeometryN |
+--------------+
| POINT (1 -1) |
+--------------+

Or, visually:










To get the total number of geometries, use ST_NumGeometries.
