s2

CORE
Our S2 module is based on a port of the official S2 geometry library created by Google. For more information about S2 check the library's website or the Spatial Indexes section of this documentation.
S2_BOUNDARY
S2_BOUNDARY(id)
Description
Returns the boundary for a given S2 cell ID. We extract the boundary by getting the corner longitudes and latitudes, then enclose it in a GeoJSON and finally transform it into geography.
id: INT64 S2 cell ID to get the boundary geography from.
Return type
GEOGRAPHY
Example
carto-un
carto-un-eu
carto-os
manual
SELECT `carto-un`.carto.S2_BOUNDARY(955378847514099712);

S2 Cell edges are spherical geodesics. The boundary edges can be interpreted as straight lines in other GIS tools, so to export the exact shape of the cells, use ST_GEOGFROM(ST_ASGEOJSON(geog). In this process, BigQuery will add intermediate points to preserve the geodesic curves.
