发布关于PostGIS对于USD格式的拓展
我们非常高兴的发布为了一年一度的SIGGRAPH 2023发布关于为PostGIS支持USD格式的新拓展。
新添加了3个函数
ST_AsUSDA(geom geometry, usd_root_name text, usd_geom_name text, width float) ST_AsUSDC(geom geometry, usd_root_name text, usd_geom_name text, width float) ST_GeomFromUSD(format int, content bytea)
函数ST_AsUSDA和ST_AsUSDC用于转换PostGIS的geometry为USD数据，可以是文本格式的USDA用于调试，或者是紧凑的二进制USDC格式。所有的参数解释如下。
- geom, 输入PostGIS几何体
- usd_root_name text, USD默认Prim的名字，默认为World
- usd_geom_name text, 生成的USD对象Prim名字，默认为_geometry
- width, 默认为1.0，对于点Point和线Curve类似的geomtry, 此参数设置其宽度
ST_GeomFromUSD用于转换USD文件到GEOMETRYCOLLECTION，
- format，设置为1，输入内容为USDA，设置为2，为二进制USDC

We're happy to annouce that the USD format in PostGIS is working for SIGGRAPH 2023.
There are 3 major functions were created,
ST_AsUSDA(geom geometry, usd_root_name text, usd_geom_name text, width float) ST_AsUSDC(geom geometry, usd_root_name text, usd_geom_name text, width float) ST_GeomFromUSD(format int, content bytea)
The function ST_AsUSDA and ST_AsUSDC are used convert a PostGIS geometry to USD content, either in ASCII(USDA) format or binary Crate format(USDC). Both of them supports all geometry type. Here is the explanation for all arguments.
- geom, the PostGIS geometry
- usd_root_name text, default value is "World", generated USD has default prim with same name
- usd_geom_name text, default value is "_geometry", if a geometry contains sub-geometry, the all geometry object will be created with flatten USD prims with this name
- width, default value is 1.0, for Point or Curve-like geometry, it sets the USD width at USD geometry
ST_GeomFromUSD is is used to convert a USD content back to a set of geometry wrapped by GEOMETRYCOLLECTION.
- format = 1 when content is USDA, format = 2 for USDC
