Hi all,
I have received data from a WFS that was returned in this format:
(Sample feature member)
<gml:featureMember>
<featureSet_704 fid="featureSet_704-feature_1732">
<gml:boundedBy>
<gml:Box>
<gml:coord>
<gml:X>4436682.0</gml:X>
<gml:Y>5783076.0</gml:Y>
</gml:coord>
<gml:coord>
<gml:X>4441086.0</gml:X>
<gml:Y>5786776.0</gml:Y>
</gml:coord>
</gml:Box>
</gml:boundedBy>
<GEOM_ID>1732</GEOM_ID>
<NAME>Marienborn</NAME>
</featureSet_704>
</gml:featureMember>
...
After successful conversion, however, only the GEOM_ID and the NAME are
exported. The spatial information is ignored lost during the conversion.
Maybe it's in the wrong format, but it is obviously present in the GML
fragment above. What can I do to convert the spatial information that is
contained in the <X> and <Y> elements?
Knut,
The above feature fragment from a WFS lacks a geometry properly. The
boundedBy properly is normally ignored by OGR. Following is a simple
example of a GML feature with a point geometry attribute.
<gml:featureMember>
<airports fid="2">
<NAME>Bowstring Municipal Airport</NAME>
<LAT> 47.5583</LAT>
<LON> -93.8689</LON>
<ELEVATION> 1372.0000</ELEVATION>
<QUADNAME>Jessie Lake</QUADNAME>
<ogr:geometryProperty><gml:Point><gml:coordinates>434634,5267578</gml:coordinates></gml:Point></ogr:geometryProperty>
</airports>
</gml:featureMember>
If you can influence your WFS, then producing something a bit like this
might be good.
Best regards,
--
