{% hint style="info" %}
For spatial operations like buffers, intersections, and transformations, you can use Databricks' native [spatial SQL functions](https://docs.databricks.com/en/sql/language-manual/sql-ref-geography-spatial-functions.html) directly. These work seamlessly with CARTO's Databricks connection.
