Svg

Generates an SVG representation of geometric data. Syntax: 
Svg(geometry[, style])
Aliases:
  • SVG
  • svg
Arguments:
  • geometry (Geo): The geometric data to be converted to SVG.
  • style (String, optional): A style string to be applied to the SVG element.
Returns: A string containing the SVG representation of the geometry. (String) The function generates different SVG elements based on the input geometry type:
  • Point: SVG circle
  • Ring or Polygon: SVG polygon
  • MultiPolygon: SVG path
Examples: Generate an SVG circle for a point: 
SELECT
	svg((0., 0.)) AS svg_point;
Result: 
| svg_point                              |
|----------------------------------------|
| <circle cx="0" cy="0" r="5" style=""/> |
Generate an SVG polygon for a taco-shaped area: 
SELECT
	svg([(0., 0.), (5, 2), (10, 0), (8, 5), (10, 10), (5, 8), (0, 10), (2, 5)]) AS svg_taco;
Result: 
| svg_taco                                                             |
|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
| <polygon points="0,0 2,5 0,10 5,8 10,10 8,5 10,0 5,2 0,0" style=""/> |
Generate an SVG path for a taco with a bite taken out: 
SELECT
	svg([[(0., 0.), (5, 2), (10, 0), (8, 5), (10, 10), (5, 8), (0, 10), (2, 5)],
		[(4., 4.), (5, 5), (6, 4), (5, 3)]]) AS svg_bitten_taco;
Result: 
| svg_bitten_taco                                                                                                                           |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
