ST_PolyFromGeoJSON

ST_PolyFromGeoJSON takes a string column and returns a polygon column. The input string column must contain the GeoJSON representation of polygon geometries. You can optionally specify a spatial reference for the result polygon column. The sr parameter value must be a valid SRID or WKT string. If a polygon cannot be created from the input string the function will return null.
