Postgresql PostGIS ST_包含无法返回数据的内容

我在使用PostGIS 2.1.7和PostgreSQL 9.4时遇到了一个奇怪的情况

我正在尝试将位于加利福尼亚州内的一个点（纬度：36.671112，经度：-121.662636，正如我们在这张地图上看到的：）与以下查询进行匹配：

select name
from zones
where ST_Contains(area, ST_SetSRID(ST_Point(-121.662636, 36.671112), 4326))

其中，

区域

定义如下：

create table zones (
  name text,
  kml text,
  area geometry
)

insert into zones (name, kml)
values (
  'California',

update zones
set area = ST_GeomFromKML(kml)

尽管它本应返回以下内容：

   name 
-----------
California
(1 row)

您是否看到查询或表创建脚本有任何错误

---

（我不得不说，这不是一个与点本身相关的边缘案例，因为我遇到了同样的问题，超过60000个不同的点，都位于加利福尼亚州）

它没有返回匹配，因为点不在该区域内

请尝试以下查询：

select st_xmax(area), st_ymax(area), st_xmin(area), st_ymin(area) from zones;

您将看到该点远远超出了最大点和最小点的范围：

"st_xmax","st_ymax","st_xmin","st_ymin"
-118.303174,33.478098,-118.60403,33.299075

你的区域似乎是洛杉矶海岸的一个岛屿（岛上有一个叫“阿瓦隆”的小镇），而不是整个州

（给你一个小提示。你可以使用像QGIS这样的GIS来可视化你的图层——你很快就会发现问题所在。我就是这么做的！）

"st_xmax","st_ymax","st_xmin","st_ymin"
-118.303174,33.478098,-118.60403,33.299075
