So I can do the same with PHP. I m not sur to have understand : where GeometryFromText and MULTIPOLYGON come from ? http://facstaff.unca.edu/mcmcclur/GoogleMaps/EncodePolyline/encodeForm.html ? Or from a Ruby class ? Other question, the points encodong from "-1.789000, -8.9850000 >TO> "{cohD|qilBrfL|an@wuH`tAaz@"" is made when feeding the database or when extracting datas from db. Still not possible for me to import sql because of geometry field. I m sad, looks like the right aswer to my problem. almost touching the end... Merci, Sylvain.

But how could sql deal with GeometryFromText and MULTIPOLYGON ? Where these methods come from ? Thanx a lot, S. Merci beaucoup,

Import SQL failed into wrong characters in the GEOMETRY format field. Could I replace it with FLOAT  format fileld. Merci beaucoup, S Hi,

However, I am getting "MySQL server has gone away" error when I try to import your sql dump file. I tried increasing the timeout value but no luck there. My server seems to choke on large countries (Canada and Russia) with lots of points - any tips???

(there are many similar queries for which i get multiple results) thanks, vishay thanks so much for this great tutorial!

i’m trying to run Andy’s query and I’m getting some strange behavior:

SELECT ID, NAME, CONTAINS( ogc_geom, GeomFromText(‘POINT(15 60)’) ) AS C
FROM `world_boundaries` WHERE CONTAINS( ogc_geom, GeomFromText(‘POINT(15, 60)’) ) = 1;

returns Norway, Russia, Sweden, and the US. i’m very confused by this. can you explain this behavior? (there are many similar queries for which i get multiple results)

thanks,
vishay
