Sqlserver Manual

The document describes the ST_YMax and ST_YMin PostGIS functions. ST_YMax returns the maximum Y coordinate of a bounding box or geometry, while ST_YMin returns the minimum Y coordinate. Both functions support 3D geometries and circular strings/curves. Examples are provided demonstrating the use of ST_YMax and ST_YMin on boxed and linestrings.

Synopsis
float ST_YMax(box3d aGeomorBox2DorBox3D);

Description
Returns Y maxima of a bounding box 2d or 3d or a geometry.
Note
Although this function is only defined for box3d, it will work for box2d and geometry because of the auto-casting behavior
defined for geometries and box2d. However you can not feed it a geometry or box2d text represenation, since that will
not auto-cast.

This function supports 3d and will not drop the z-index.


This method supports Circular Strings and Curves

Examples
SELECT ST_YMax(BOX3D(1 2 3, 4 5 6));

SELECT ST_YMax(ST_GeomFromText(LINESTRING(1 3 4, 5 6 7)));
st_ymax

SELECT ST_YMax(CAST(BOX(-3 2, 3 4) As box2d));
st_ymax

--Observe THIS DOES NOT WORK because it will try to autocast the string representation to a BOX3D
SELECT ST_YMax(LINESTRING(1 3, 5 6));
--ERROR:
