MySQL 9.5 Reference Manual Including MySQL NDB Cluster 9.5
A Point consists of X and Y coordinates,
which may be obtained using the
ST_X() and
ST_Y() functions, respectively.
These functions also permit an optional second argument that
specifies an X or Y coordinate value, in which case the function
result is the Point object from the first
argument with the appropriate coordinate modified to be equal to
the second argument.
For Point objects that have a geographic
spatial reference system (SRS), the longitude and latitude may
be obtained using the
ST_Longitude() and
ST_Latitude() functions,
respectively. These functions also permit an optional second
argument that specifies a longitude or latitude value, in which
case the function result is the Point object
from the first argument with the longitude or latitude modified
to be equal to the second argument.
Unless otherwise specified, functions in this section handle their geometry arguments as follows:
If any argument is NULL, the return value
is NULL.
If any geometry argument is a valid geometry but not a
Point object, an
ER_UNEXPECTED_GEOMETRY_TYPE
error occurs.
If any geometry argument is not a syntactically well-formed
geometry, an
ER_GIS_INVALID_DATA error
occurs.
If any geometry argument is a syntactically well-formed
geometry in an undefined spatial reference system (SRS), an
ER_SRS_NOT_FOUND error
occurs.
If an X or Y coordinate argument is provided and the value
is -inf, +inf, or
NaN, an
ER_DATA_OUT_OF_RANGE error
occurs.
If a longitude or latitude value is out of range, an error occurs:
If a longitude value is not in the range (−180,
180], an
ER_LONGITUDE_OUT_OF_RANGE
error occurs.
If a latitude value is not in the range [−90, 90],
an
ER_LATITUDE_OUT_OF_RANGE
error occurs.
Ranges shown are in degrees. The exact range limits deviate slightly due to floating-point arithmetic.
Otherwise, the return value is non-NULL.
These functions are available for obtaining point properties:
ST_Latitude(
p
[, new_latitude_val])
With a single argument representing a valid
Point object p
that has a geographic spatial reference system (SRS),
ST_Latitude() returns the
latitude value of p as a
double-precision number.
With the optional second argument representing a valid
latitude value, ST_Latitude()
returns a Point object like the first
argument with its latitude equal to the second argument.
ST_Latitude() handles its
arguments as described in the introduction to this section,
with the addition that if the Point
object is valid but does not have a geographic SRS, an
ER_SRS_NOT_GEOGRAPHIC error
occurs.

ST_Longitude(
p
[, new_longitude_val])
With a single argument representing a valid
Point object p
that has a geographic spatial reference system (SRS),
ST_Longitude() returns the
longitude value of p as a
double-precision number.
With the optional second argument representing a valid
longitude value,
ST_Longitude() returns a
Point object like the first argument with
its longitude equal to the second argument.
ST_Longitude() handles its
arguments as described in the introduction to this section,
with the addition that if the Point
object is valid but does not have a geographic SRS, an
ER_SRS_NOT_GEOGRAPHIC error
occurs.

With a single argument representing a valid
Point object
p,
ST_X() returns the
X-coordinate value of p as a
double-precision number. The X coordinate is considered to
refer to the axis that appears first in the
Point spatial reference system (SRS)
definition.
With the optional second argument,
ST_X() returns a
Point object like the first argument with
its X coordinate equal to the second argument. If the
Point object has a geographic SRS, the
second argument must be in the proper range for longitude or
latitude values.
ST_X() handles its arguments
as described in the introduction to this section.

With a single argument representing a valid
Point object
p,
ST_Y() returns the
Y-coordinate value of p as a
double-precision number.The Y coordinate is considered to
refer to the axis that appears second in the
Point spatial reference system (SRS)
definition.
With the optional second argument,
ST_Y() returns a
Point object like the first argument with
its Y coordinate equal to the second argument. If the
Point object has a geographic SRS, the
second argument must be in the proper range for longitude or
latitude values.
ST_Y() handles its arguments
as described in the introduction to this section.
