s2

Our S2 module is based on a port of the official S2 geometry library created by Google. For more information about S2 check the or the 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

SELECT `carto-un`.carto.S2_BOUNDARY(955378847514099712);
-- POLYGON((-3.41955272426037 40.25850071217, -3.41955272426037  ...

SELECT `carto-un-eu`.carto.S2_BOUNDARY(955378847514099712);
-- POLYGON((-3.41955272426037 40.25850071217, -3.41955272426037  ...

SELECT carto.S2_BOUNDARY(955378847514099712);
-- POLYGON((-3.41955272426037 40.25850071217, -3.41955272426037  ...

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.
