> We current support point, polygon, circle, and rectangle. The GIS world has
> more data shapes as described in [Well-know
> text|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well-known_text].
> [PostGIS|http://postgis.net/docs/manual-2.2/using_postgis_dbmanagement.html#RefObject]
> is also a good referecne. It will be very nice we can support all standard
> spatial object internally and can parse/format the spatial object in a
> "well-known" way. e.g. well-know format or [geojson|http://geojson.org/]
> format
