Python
from pyspark.databricks.sql import functions as dbf
dbf.st_numpoints(col=<col>)
Parameters
Examples
Return the number of points in a non-empty multipoint geometry:
Python
from pyspark.databricks.sql import functions as dbf
df = spark.createDataFrame([('MULTIPOINT(10 34,44 57,EMPTY)',)], ['wkt'])
df.select(dbf.st_numpoints(dbf.st_geomfromtext('wkt')).alias('result')).collect()
Output
[Row(result=2)]
Return the number of points in an empty multipoint geometry:
Python
from pyspark.databricks.sql import functions as dbf
df = spark.createDataFrame([('MULTIPOINT(EMPTY,EMPTY)',)], ['wkt'])
df.select(dbf.st_numpoints(dbf.st_geomfromtext('wkt')).alias('result')).collect()
Output
[Row(result=0)]
Return the number of points in a non-empty polygon geometry:
