Amazon Redshift will no longer support the use of Python UDFs after June 30, 2026. We will start enforcing it in phases. For more information on the details of Python end of life and migration options, see the [ blog post ](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/amazon-redshift-python-user-defined-functions-will-reach-end-of-support-after-june-30-2026/) that was published on June 30, 2025. 

# ST\_Disjoint
<a name="ST_Disjoint-function"></a>

ST\_Disjoint returns true if the 2D projections of the two input geometries have no points in common. 

## Syntax
<a name="ST_Disjoint-function-syntax"></a>

```
ST_Disjoint(geom1, geom2)
```

## Arguments
<a name="ST_Disjoint-function-arguments"></a>

 *geom1*   
A value of data type `GEOMETRY` or an expression that evaluates to a `GEOMETRY` type. 

 *geom2*   
A value of data type `GEOMETRY` or an expression that evaluates to a `GEOMETRY` type. 

## Return type
<a name="ST_Disjoint-function-return"></a>

`BOOLEAN`

If *geom1* or *geom2* is null, then null is returned. 

If *geom1* and *geom2* don't have the same value for the spatial reference system identifier (SRID), then an error is returned. 

If *geom1* or *geom2* is a geometry collection, then an error is returned. 

## Examples
<a name="ST_Disjoint-function-examples"></a>

The following SQL checks if the first polygon is disjoint from the second polygon. 

```
SELECT ST_Disjoint(ST_GeomFromText('POLYGON((0 0,10 0,10 10,0 10,0 0),(2 2,2 5,5 5,5 2,2 2))'), ST_Point(4, 4));
```

```
st_disjoint               
-----------
 true
```
