Returns the minimum convex geometry that encloses all geometries within a raster.

Syntax

geometry ST_ConvexHull(raster source);
geometry ST_ConvexHull(raster source, integer pyramid);

Parameters

ParameterDescription
sourceThe raster to compute the convex hull for.
pyramidThe pyramid level of the raster. Valid values start from 0. Default value: 0.

Description

ST_ConvexHull computes the minimum convex geometry that encloses all geometries within a raster. Think of it as stretching a rubber band around the full extent of the raster — the result is always a geometry value.

Minimum convex geometry

Examples

Get the convex hull of a raster at the default pyramid level (0):

SELECT ST_AsText(ST_ConvexHull(rast_object))
FROM raster_table;

----------------------------------------------------
 POLYGON((-180 90,180 90,180 -90,-180 -90,-180 90))

Get the convex hull at a specific pyramid level:

-- Specify the pyramid level at which the raster resides.
SELECT ST_AsText(ST_ConvexHull(rast_object, 1))
FROM raster_table;

----------------------------------------------------
 POLYGON((-180 90,180 90,180 -90,-180 -90,-180 90))
