MySQL Error 3134: Geometry Point Limit Exceeded

📦 MySQL
📋

Description

This error indicates that a spatial geometry object being processed or stored in MySQL contains more points (vertices) than the system's defined maximum limit. It typically occurs when working with complex geographical data or large-scale spatial operations that generate or manipulate geometries with a high number of coordinates.
💬

Error Message

Parameter %s exceeds the maximum number of points in a geometry (%lu) in function %s.
🔍

Known Causes

3 known causes
⚠️
Defining Overly Complex Geometries
Attempting to create or insert a geometry object (e.g., a very detailed POLYGON or LINESTRING) with an extremely large number of vertices directly exceeds MySQL's internal limits.
⚠️
Importing High-Resolution Spatial Data
When importing spatial data from external GIS systems or files (like shapefiles, GeoJSON) that contain geometries with a higher resolution or point count than MySQL supports.
⚠️
Spatial Function Generating Large Geometries
Certain spatial functions (e.g., ST_Buffer, ST_Union) on existing geometries can, in some cases, generate new geometries with a significantly increased number of points, leading to an overflow.
