Query (Object-Type)
(Invoked by Layer > Query > Rectangle/Circle/Polygon/Point)
Alias: Alias of the layer for which to perform the query.
Color: Color to be used in the drawing area for objects that satisfy the query.
The current layer [name] contains only single-point data: If the layer contains only point data (no lines or polygons, for example),
enable this option for optimal performance.
Show Relationship Based on: Select one of the following relationships for the query:
- Primary filter only (SDO_FILTER) -- executes more quickly, but returns less precise (less discriminating)
results.
- Spatial interaction (SDO_RELATE) -- select one or more specific relationship types (see list below).
- Spatial distance (SDO_WITHIN_DISTANCE) -- enter a distance value; and optionally specify Primary Filter Only to have the query execute more quickly but return less precise (less
discriminating) results.
- Nearest neighbor (SDO_NN) -- enter the Number of Nearest Neighbors, that is, the number of geometries closest to the selected geometry to be
considered in the query.
Spatial interaction relationship types:
- ANYINTERACT -- The objects are non-disjoint.
- CONTAINS -- The interior and boundary of one object is completely contained in
the interior of the other.
- COVEREDBY -- The opposite of COVERS. A COVEREDBY B implies B COVERS A.
- COVERS --The interior of one object is completely contained in the interior of
the other and their boundaries intersect.
- EQUAL -- The two objects have the same boundary and interior.
- INSIDE -- The opposite of CONTAINS. A INSIDE B implies B CONTAINS A.
- OVERLAPBDYDISJOINT --The interior of one object intersects the boundary and
interior of the other object but the two boundaries do not intersect. This
relation occurs, for example, when a line originates outside a polygon and ends
inside that polygon.
- OVERLAPBDYINTERSECT -- The boundaries and interiors of the two objects
intersect.
- TOUCH --The boundaries intersect but the interiors do not.
