Returns the north-based azimuth from the first point to the second in radians in [0, 2π).

Syntax​

st_azimuth ( geoExpr1, geoExpr2 )

Arguments​

  • geoExpr1: The first GEOGRAPHY or GEOMETRY value.
  • geoExpr2: The second GEOGRAPHY or GEOMETRY value.

Returns​

Returns a DOUBLE value equal to the north-based azimuth from the first point to the second. The result is in radians in the range [0, 2π).

The inputs are expected to be either two GEOGRAPHY or two GEOMETRY values, otherwise a DATATYPE_MISMATCH error is returned. Both input values are expected to represent points, otherwise a ST_INVALID_ARGUMENT.INVALID_TYPE error is returned.

If the 2D projections of the two points are equal, the returned azimuth is zero.

NULL is returned if any of the two input GEOGRAPHY or GEOMETRY values is empty.

If at least one of the input points is empty, NULL is returned.

Error conditions​

Examples​

SQL
-- The inputs are `GEOMETRY` values. The output (Cartesian azimuth) is displayed in degrees.
> SELECT round(st_azimuth(st_geomfromtext('POINT(0 45)'), st_geomfromtext('POINT(1 46)')) * 180.0 / pi(), 3);
  45.0

-- The inputs are `GEOGRAPHY` values. The output (geographic azimuth on the WGS84 ellipsoid) is displayed in degrees.
> SELECT round(st_azimuth(st_geogfromtext('POINT(0 45)'), st_geogfromtext('POINT(1 46)')) * 180.0 / pi(), 3);
  34.76
