SRS is not a geographic coordinate system
Production Risk
Medium — spatial queries fail; convert to the correct SRS.
How to reproduce
trigger — this will error
trigger — this will error
SELECT ST_Distance_Sphere(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(0 0)', 0), ST_GeomFromText('POINT(1 1)', 0));expected output
ERROR 3277 (HY000): Function requires a geographic spatial reference system, but got Cartesian SRS.
Fix
Use geographic SRS
Use geographic SRS
SELECT ST_Distance_Sphere(ST_GeomFromText('POINT(139.7 35.7)', 4326), ST_GeomFromText('POINT(135.5 34.7)', 4326));Why this works
Geographic functions require lat/long coordinates in a geographic SRS.
