 ## 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.

+
+#### 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
+```
