The function supports both Planar/Euclidean and Spheroidal/Geodesic buffering (Since v1.6.0). Spheroidal buffer also supports geometries crossing the International Date Line (IDL). -The optional third parameter controls the buffer accuracy and style. Buffer accuracy is specified by the number of line segments approximating a quarter circle, with a default of 8 segments. Buffer style can be set by providing blank-separated key=value pairs in a list format. +Mode of buffer calculation (Since: `v1.6.0`): + +The optional third parameter, `useSpheroid`, controls the mode of buffer calculation. + +- Planar Buffering (default): When `useSpheroid` is false, `ST_Buffer` performs standard planar buffering based on the provided parameters. +- Spheroidal Buffering: Review Comment: Done -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
