Re: [Geotools-devel] improved kml parsing

[drewcox <dre...@no...>]

Hi,

We too are trying to make use of the KML support in 8.6 stable to generate
KML from ESRI Shapefiles.  We would like to generate KML 2.2, but have not
been successful.

The examples online all seem to use the default org.geotools.kml package,
which results in KML 2.1 XML, like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kml:Polygon xmlns:kml="http://earth.google.com/kml/2.1">
    <kml:outerBoundaryIs>
        <kml:LinearRing>
            <kml:coordinates>-115.17106956335083,36.08242087647367
-115.17246001114137,36.082425651432125
-115.17255380637391,36.082676888621286 -115.16792819990825,36.08278634227663
-115.17023232416489,36.08273184317541 -115.17040567238946,36.08246989479518
-115.17106956335083,36.08242087647367</kml:coordinates>
        </kml:LinearRing>
    </kml:outerBoundaryIs>
</kml:Polygon>

When switching to the org.geotools.kml.v22; package results in an empty
document, like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kml:Polygon xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"
    xmlns:kml="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2"
xmlns:xal="urn:oasis:names:tc:ciq:xsdschema:xAL:2.0">
    <kml:outerBoundaryIs/>
</kml:Polygon>

Code I am using is:

		Encoder encoder = new Encoder(new KMLConfiguration());
		encoder.setIndenting(true);
		String kmlString;
		try {
			kmlString = encoder.encodeAsString(polygon, KML.Polygon);
		} catch (IOException e) {
			throw new RuntimeException("Could not parse WKT to KML", e);
		}

Thanks
Drew
