ST_MPointFromText(wkt[,srid]), ST_MultiPointFromText(wkt[,srid])

Constructs a MultiPoint value using its WKT representation and SRID.

As of MySQL 5.7.9, spatial functions such as ST_MPointFromText() and
ST_GeomFromText() that accept WKT-format representations of MultiPoint
values permit individual points within values to be surrounded by
parentheses. For example, both of the following function calls are
valid, whereas before MySQL 5.7.9 the second one produces an error:

ST_MPointFromText('MULTIPOINT (1 1, 2 2, 3 3)')
ST_MPointFromText('MULTIPOINT ((1 1), (2 2), (3 3))')
