Calculating the length of the longest side of a polygon

657716Sep 2 2008 — edited Sep 3 2008
If you want to calculate the length of the longest side of a polygon -- for example a rectangle -- how can that be done using the standard geometrical functions of spatial in an oracle 10g2 database?

SDO_LENGHT delivers the outline of the polygon. If have looked at the LRS functions, but could not come up with a combination that delivers me what I am looking for. Any suggestion is appreciated.
