## OBS_GetGeometryById(geometry_id)
|
||||
|
||||
The ```OBS_GetGeometryById(geometry_id)``` returns the boundary geometry for a unique geometry_id. A geometry_id can be found using the ```OBS_GetGeometryId(point_geometry, boundary_id)``` method described above.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Arguments
|
||||
|
||||
Name |Description
|
||||
--- | ---
|

geometry_id | a string identifier for a Boundary geometry

#### Example
|
||||
|
||||
Use a table of geometry_id to select the unique boundaries. Useful with the ```Table from query``` option in CartoDB.
|
||||
|
||||
```SQL
|
||||
SELECT OBS_GetGeometryById(geometry_id) the_geom, geometry_id FROM tablename GROUP BY geometry_id
