Segmentize lines for accurate area computation

https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/206973/postgis-st-area-with-similar-geographies-producing-different-results

The problem: calculating the area of a large polygon with straight lines that is converted to a geography.

Use ST_Segmentize to add intermediary segments in the lines. This provides a better representation of the geodesic lines in geography.

WITH data(geom) AS (VALUES
   ( ST_GeomFromEWKT('SRID=4326;POLYGON ((-125 49, -67 49, -67 25, -125 25, -125 49))') )
)
SELECT ST_Area( ST_Segmentize( geom, 0.1)::geography ) AS segarea,
        ST_Area( geom::geography ) AS area
FROM data;

Find geometry with invalid geodetic coordinates

https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/411328/st-transform-error-latitude-or-longitude-exceeded-limits-14

Example

SELECT ST_Transform(ST_SetSRID('POINT(575 90)'::geometry,4269),102008);

ERROR:  transform: latitude or longitude exceeded limits (-14)

Find geodetic data with invalid coordinates

SELECT * FROM data_tbl
WHERE abs(ST_XMax(geom)) > 180 
   OR abs(ST_YMax(geom) > 90;

Find geodetic Spatial Reference System definitions

SELECT srid, srtext
FROM spatial_ref_sys
WHERE srtext LIKE 'GEO%';
