Subject: Need a little help with geometric query
Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2011 17:56:24 -0500 (CDT)
Message-ID: <alpine.LRH.2.00.1108251749470.17085@rray.drdc.mstc.ms.gov> (raw)

This is my first shot at using postgresql's geometric functions
I have a passel of lines defined by x1 y1 x2 y2
I created a table with type lseg and loaded it
I start by finding the line that has an end closest to 0,0
Now I want to find the next line that has an end closest to the first line's other end and so on
I want to find the shortest path
I see there are a lot of geometric operators but I am a bit baffled
Can someone offer suggestions or reading references

Thanks
Richard
