STNumGeometries (geometry Data Type)
SQL Server 2008 R2
Returns the number of geometries that comprise a geometry instance.
This method returns 1 if the geometry instance is not a MultiPoint, MultiLineString, MultiPolygon, or GeometryCollection instance, and 0 if the geometry instance is empty.
 Note |
|---|
If a GeometryCollection has nested empty elements, STNumGeometries() will not return 0. Though the elements in the GeometryCollection instance are empty, the instance itself is not an empty set. |
