在Mysql中存储经度/纬度的数据类型

Question

'43.005895','-71.013202'

Trying to use:

INSERT INTO table(fanDetLocZip, fanDetLocCity, fanDetLocState, fanDetLocLat, fanDetLocLong, fanDetLocTZ, fanDetLocDST)  
VALUES(00210, 'Portsmouth', 'NH', '43.005895', '-71.013202', -5, 1);

I'm currently using the datatype SPATIAL , GEOMETRY .

Its giving me errors like:

Cannot get geometry object from data you send to the GEOMETRY field

All the values have 2 digits, and 6 decimal places after decimal. How do I store this in mysql?

Error I get when I use:
INSERT INTO Table(fanDetLocZip, fanDetLocCity, fanDetLocState, fanDetLocLatLong, fanDetLocTZ, fanDetLocDST)
VALUES(00210, 'Portsmouth', 'NH', point(43.005895,-71.013202), -5,1)

Answer 1

You can use POINT() to store into a column of type GEOMETRY or POINT :

POINT(43.005895, -71.013202)

If the Geometry column is named geom , you can use this:

INSERT INTO table
    ( ..., geom, ...) 
  VALUES
    ( ..., POINT(43.005895, -71.013202), ...)

---

If you want to show data stored, you can use the X() and Y() functions:

SELECT X(geom) AS x, Y(geom) AS y
FROM table 

Answer 2

为什么不使用Float类型作为lat / long？

Float (10,6)
