Description

Returns the measure value of the next shape point on a geometric segment after a specified measure value or LRS point.

Parameters

geom_segment: Geometric segment (LRS segment) containing measure information.
measure: Measure value on the geometric segment for which to return the measure value of the next shape point.
point: Point for which to return the measure value of the next shape point. If point is not on geom_segment, the point on the geometric segment closest to the specified point is computed, and the measure value of the next shape point after that point is returned.
dim_array: Dimensional information array corresponding to geom_segment, usually selected from one of the xxx_SDO_GEOM_METADATA views (described in Geometry Metadata Views).

Usage Notes

If measure or point identifies the end point of the geometric segment, a null value is returned.

An exception is raised if measure is not a valid value for geom_segment or if point is not a valid LRS point.

Contrast this function with SDO_LRS.GET_PREV_SHAPE_PT_MEASURE, which returns the measure value of the previous shape point on a geometric segment before a specified measure value or LRS point.

The _3D format of this function (SDO_LRS.GET_NEXT_SHAPE_PT_MEASURE_3D) is available. For information about _3D formats of LRS functions, see 3D Formats of LRS Functions.

Examples

The following example returns the measure value of the next shape point after measure 14 on the geometric segment representing Route 1. (This example uses the definitions from the example in Example of LRS Functions.)

SELECT SDO_LRS.GET_NEXT_SHAPE_PT_MEASURE(a.route_geometry, 14)
   FROM lrs_routes a WHERE a.route_id = 1;

SDO_LRS.GET_NEXT_SHAPE_PT_MEASURE(A.ROUTE_GEOMETRY,14)
