             Summary: Auto Detect geometry column in GeoJSON writer
                 Key: SEDONA-718
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SEDONA-718
             Project: Apache Sedona
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Kristin Cowalcijk
             Fix For: 1.7.1


Currently, the GeoJSON writer will only use the column named "geometry" as the 
geometry field of the GeoJSON, users have to use {{.option("geometry.column", 
"geom")}} to use other geometry columns. This is very common where a DataFrame 
contains only {{geom}} field but not {{geometry}} field.

We want to make the GeoJSON writer a bit smarter by automatically detecting 
columns with geometry types when the column named "geometry" does not present, 
or does not have geometry type:
 # If there's a column named "geometry" with geometry type, Sedona will use 
this column
 # Otherwise, Sedona will use the first geometry column found in the root schema
