RE: Three point ARC to MULTILINESTRING

Paul
Do we have any documentation on this?  I checked latest but there is limited info there.

This is a great post but I don't think anyone answered it.

I would love to add this to the asSVG since SVG handles circular arcs.  Where are we on the other issues  for support (i.e area(), psql2shp, length(), etc.)?

Thanks!

Use the CIRCULARSTRING type, and the ST_CurveToLine(geometry) function
to convert it to a linestring.

CREATE TABLE test ( GEOM geometry );
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('CIRCULARSTRING(0 0, 1 1, 2 0)');
SELECT ST_AsText(ST_CurveToLine(geom)) FROM test;

 Hi All,

 I have a question. I need to store an Arc into a postgis database. As far as
 I know, Postgis doens't support arcs. Is there another way to convert a
 Three Point Arc to a MultiLineString?

 Best regards,

 Johan.
