Q1Domain Verified
In the context of "The Complete PostGIS Spatial Queries Course 2026," which of the following PostGIS functions is most appropriate for calculating the shortest distance between two geometries, considering the ellipsoidal nature of the Earth, and would be the preferred choice for precise global measurements?
`ST_DistanceSphere(geom1, geom2)`
`ST_DWithin(geom1, geom2, distance)`
`ST_Distance(geom1, geom2)`
`ST_3DDistance(geom1, geom2)`
Q2Domain Verified
Consider a scenario in "The Complete PostGIS Spatial Queries Course 2026" where you need to perform complex spatial operations involving multiple overlapping polygons and extract only the areas that are exclusively covered by a specific set of input polygons. Which of the following approaches best aligns with the course's emphasis on advanced spatial analysis and efficient querying?
Employing `ST_SymDifference` to identify areas covered by an odd number of input polygons, followed by filtering.
Performing a series of `ST_Intersection` operations between each input polygon and a mask geometry.
Using `ST_Union` to combine all input polygons and then `ST_Difference` to subtract unwanted areas.
Utilizing `ST_Dump` to explode all input polygons into individual geometries and then applying a `WHERE` clause with `ST_Contains` or `ST_Within`.
Q3Domain Verified
In "The Complete PostGIS Spatial Queries Course 2026," when dealing with large datasets of points and needing to efficiently identify points that fall within a specific administrative boundary (a polygon), what is the most performant spatial index strategy recommended for the point layer to optimize `ST_Within` queries?
A BRIN index on the `geometry` column.
A SP-GiST index on the `geometry` column.
A GiST index on the `geometry` column using the default operator class.
A R-Tree index on the `geometry` column.
