# ST_Translate (Python)

> Returns the geometry with x, y and z (if present) coordinates offset by given deltaX, deltaY, and deltaZ values.

Returns the geometry with x, y and z (if present) coordinates offset by given deltaX, deltaY, and deltaZ values.

SQL reference: [`ST_Translate`](/reference/wherobots-db/geometry-data/affine-transformations/ST_Translate)

## Signature

```python theme={"system"}
from sedona.spark.sql.st_functions import ST_Translate

ST_Translate(
    geometry: ColumnOrName,
    deltaX: Union[ColumnOrName, float],
    deltaY: Union[ColumnOrName, float],
    deltaZ: Optional[Union[ColumnOrName, float]] = 0.0,
) -> Column
```

## Parameters

<ParamField path="geometry" type="ColumnOrName" required>
  Geometry column whose coordinates are to be translated.
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="deltaX" type="Union[ColumnOrName, float]" required>
  value by which to offset X coordinate.
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="deltaY" type="Union[ColumnOrName, float]" required>
  value by which to offset Y coordinate.
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="deltaZ" type="Optional[Union[ColumnOrName, float]]" default="0.0">
  value by which to offset Z coordinate (if present).
</ParamField>

## Returns

<ResponseField name="return" type="Column">
  The input geometry with its coordinates translated.
</ResponseField>
