i have a typical question with the Geometric datatype of mysql, polygon.
I have the polygon data, in the form of an array of latitudes and longitudes, ex:
I have created code in php codeigniter, in my controller i have create two functions like below
public function checkLatLng(){
$vertices_y = array(22.774,22.174,22.466,22.666,22.966,22.321); // x-coordinates of the vertices of the polygon (LATITUDES)
$vertices_x = array(70.190,70.090,77.118,77.618,77.418,77.757); // y-coordinates of the vertices of the polygon (LONGITUDES)
$points_polygon = count($vertices_x)-1;
$longitude_x = $this->input->get("longitude"); // Your Longitude
$latitude_y = $this->input->get("latitude"); // Your Latitude
if ($this->is_in_polygon($points_polygon, $vertices_x, $vertices_y, $longitude_x, $latitude_y)){
echo "Is in polygon!";
}
else
echo "Is not in polygon";
}
Another function for check the lat-lng is below
public function is_in_polygon($points_polygon, $vertices_x, $vertices_y, $longitude_x, $latitude_y){
$i = $j = $c = $point = 0;
for ($i = 0, $j = $points_polygon ; $i < $points_polygon; $j = $i++) {
$point = $i;
if( $point == $points_polygon )
$point = 0;
if ( (($vertices_y[$point] > $latitude_y != ($vertices_y[$j] > $latitude_y)) && ($longitude_x < ($vertices_x[$j] - $vertices_x[$point]) * ($latitude_y - $vertices_y[$point]) / ($vertices_y[$j] - $vertices_y[$point]) + $vertices_x[$point]) ) )
$c = !$c;
}
return $c;
}
For your testing purpose i passed below things
latitude=22.808059
longitude=77.522014
