SDO_UTIL.CONVERT3007TO3008(
     geometry  IN SDO_GEOMETRY  
     ) RETURN SDO_GEOMETRY;

Description

Converts an input three-dimensional multisurface geometry (SDO_GTYPE 3007) to a simple solid geometry (SDO_GTYPE 3008).

Parameters

geometry

Geometry object with SDO_GTYPE 3007 (multisurface). The surfaces are simple polygons without interiors.

Usage Notes

For information about SDO_GEOMETRY attributes for 3D geometries, see Three-Dimensional Spatial Objects.

This function does not check the validity of the returned simple solid geometry. To check the validity of a geometry object, use the SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_GEOMETRY_WITH_CONTEXT function.

Examples

The following example converts an input three-dimensional multisurface geometry (SDO_GTYPE 3007) to a simple solid geometry (SDO_GTYPE 3008). It assumes that a table named GEOMS3D exists with at least a numeric ID column and a column named GEOM of type SDO_GEOMETRY containing three-dimensional multisurface geometries.
