Get geometry types (DuckDB-native) — st_geometrytype • dbSpatial

Returns the geometry type for each row in a dbSpatial object using DuckDB's spatial function ST_GeometryType().

Usage

st_geometrytype(dbSpatial, geomName = "geom", collect = FALSE, n = NULL, ...)

Arguments

dbSpatial: A dbSpatial object.
geomName: Geometry column name. Default: "geom".
collect: Logical (default = FALSE). If TRUE, collect results into a character vector.
n: Optional integer. If provided alongside collect = TRUE, limits the query to the first n rows before collecting.
...: Additional arguments (ignored).

Value

If collect = FALSE (default), a lazy tibble with a single column geom_type. If collect = TRUE, a character vector of geometry type(s).
