Hello,
I have a polygon structure in an sql2005 db as described below.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Polygons](
[PolygonID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[PolygonName] [varchar](255) NOT NULL,
[PolygonColor] [varchar](7) NOT NULL,
[PolygonRuleID] [int] NOT NULL)
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Polylines](
[LineID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[LineX1] [float] NOT NULL,
[LineY1] [float] NOT NULL,
[LineX2] [float] NOT NULL,
[LineY2] [float] NOT NULL,
[PolygonID] [int] NOT NULL
)
Now I retrieve whole lines to application and put all to hit testing function.
public static bool PointInPolygon(float pointX, float pointY, PolylineCollection polygon)
{
int nvert = polygon.Count();
int i, j = 0;
bool c = false;
for (i = 0, j = nvert - 1; i < nvert; j = i++)
{
if (((polygon[i].LineY1 > pointY) != (polygon[j].LineY1 > pointY)) &&
(pointX < (polygon[j].LineX1 - polygon[i].LineX1) * (pointY - polygon[i].LineY1) / (polygon[j].LineY1 - polygon[i].LineY1) + polygon[i].LineX1))
c = !c;
}
return c;
}
But I need to move this function to sql server. But Sql 2005 doesn't have native spatial functions and I dont want to use any extra spatial functionality libraries. How can I port this function to T-SQL? :) Or anyone have different solution to PointInPolygon check?
Thanks
