I have a table with a POINT
geometry field. I enter latitude/longitude points into it like this:
INSERT INTO table( point )
VALUES( POINT( lon_value, lat_value );
Sometimes I do not have lat/lon values to enter. I am unable to enter a blank, a NULL, or an empty POINT() ... since POINT(0,0) is actually a location on the globe, that won't work either.
What is the solution here?
