# ST\_DISJOINT

## Syntax

```sql
ST_DISJOINT(g1,g2)
```

## Description

Returns `1` or `0` to indicate whether geometry *`g1`* is spatially disjoint from (does not intersect with) geometry *`g2`*.

`ST_DISJOINT()` uses object shapes, while [DISJOINT()](https://mariadb.com/docs/server/reference/sql-statements/geometry-constructors/geometry-relations/disjoint), based on the original MySQL implementation, uses object bounding rectangles.

`ST_DISJOINT()` tests the opposite relationship to [ST\_INTERSECTS()](https://mariadb.com/docs/server/reference/sql-statements/geometry-constructors/geometry-relations/st-intersects).

## Examples

```sql
SET @g1 = ST_GEOMFROMTEXT('POINT(0 0)');

SET @g2 = ST_GEOMFROMTEXT('LINESTRING(2 0, 0 2)');

SELECT ST_DISJOINT(@g1,@g2);
+----------------------+
| ST_DISJOINT(@g1,@g2) |
+----------------------+
|                    1 |
+----------------------+

SET @g2 = ST_GEOMFROMTEXT('LINESTRING(0 0, 0 2)');

SELECT ST_DISJOINT(@g1,@g2);
+----------------------+
| ST_DISJOINT(@g1,@g2) |
+----------------------+
|                    0 |
+----------------------+
```

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://mariadb.com/docs/server/reference/sql-statements/geometry-constructors/geometry-relations/st_disjoint.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
