[twitter-dev] Non-finite values in Geo Location bounding_box.coordinates

[Don Park]

Hi,

Some of the tweets are causing my JSON parser (Json-Lib) to throw
"JSON does not allow non-finite numbers" exception. Looking at the
tweet, only likely suspect is the new Geo Location field
'bounding_box'.

        "bounding_box": {
            "type": "Polygon",
            "coordinates": [
                [
                    [
                        1.79769313486232e+308,
                        1.79769313486232e+308
                    ],
                    [
                        -1.79769313486232e+308,
                        1.79769313486232e+308
                    ],
                    [
                        -1.79769313486232e+308,
                        -1.79769313486232e+308
                    ],
                    [
                        1.79769313486232e+308,
                        -1.79769313486232e+308
                    ]
                ]
            ]
        },

JSON verifiers say they are valid so it's kinda confusing.
Nevertheless, I thought Twitter API team should be aware that some of
the JSON parsers are barfing on tweets like above.

Best,
