Comments - ST_Transform missing?

9 years, 8 months ago Hartmut Holzgraefe

So far the SRID property is just a dummy in MySQL, it is stored as part of a geometries meta data but all actual calculations ignore it and calculations are done assuming Euclidean (planar) geometry.

So ST_Transform would not really do anything at this point anyway.

I think the same is still true for MariaDB, at least the knowldege base page for the SRID() function still says so:
