Description (last modified by )
With the ST_LineCrossingDirection, I have unexpected results.
Using this request, I can simulate some crossing but the result is unexpected for the line 2 and 4 :
SELECT line_number, ST_LineCrossingDirection(geom_a, geom_b) "a_/_b", ST_LineCrossingDirection(geom_b, geom_a) "b_/_a", geom_a, geom_b FROM ( VALUES ( 'LINESTRING (1 0, 1 1, 2 2, 2 3)'::geometry, 'LINESTRING (2 0, 2 1, 1 2, 1 3)'::geometry, 1 ), ( 'LINESTRING (1 0, 1 1, 2 2, 1 3, 1 4)'::geometry, 'LINESTRING (2 0, 2 1, 1 2, 2 3, 2 4)'::geometry, 2 ), ( 'LINESTRING (1 0, 1 1, 2 2, 1 3, 2 4, 2 5)'::geometry, 'LINESTRING (2 0, 2 1, 1 2, 2 3, 1 4, 1 5)'::geometry, 3 ), ( 'LINESTRING (1 0, 1 1, 2 2, 1 3, 2 4, 1 5, 1 6)'::geometry, 'LINESTRING (2 0, 2 1, 1 2, 2 3, 1 4, 2 5, 2 6)'::geometry, 4 ) ) AS t1 ("geom_a", "geom_b", line_number) ;
Result :
line_number | a_/_b | b_/_a | geom_a | geom_b | -------------+-------+-------+------------------------------------------------+------------------------------------------------+ 1 | -1 | 1 | LINESTRING (1 0, 1 1, 2 2, 2 3) | LINESTRING (2 0, 2 1, 1 2, 1 3) | 2 | -3 | -3 | LINESTRING (1 0, 1 1, 2 2, 1 3, 1 4) | LINESTRING (2 0, 2 1, 1 2, 2 3, 2 4) | 3 | -2 | 2 | LINESTRING (1 0, 1 1, 2 2, 1 3, 2 4, 2 5) | LINESTRING (2 0, 2 1, 1 2, 2 3, 1 4, 1 5) | 4 | -3 | -3 | LINESTRING (1 0, 1 1, 2 2, 1 3, 2 4, 1 5, 1 6) | LINESTRING (2 0, 2 1, 1 2, 2 3, 1 4, 2 5, 2 6) |
Will the column "b_/_a" be "3" instead of "-3" on lines 2 and 4 ? The A line comes from the left of B and the B line comes from the right of A
Maybe I don't understand correctly this function but I can not explain how it works with this result.

I think you are right, the answer for line pairs 2 and 4 should be 3, not -3.
So this looks like a bug.

Anyone can confirm that this is a bug and not my "misunderstanding" of this function that gives me this result ?
Will the result have to be 3 instead of -3 for the lines 2 and 4 on column b_/_a ? Thank you
