Inappropriate self-intersecting polygon error
Brought to you by:

I have a WKT string (attached) which has been validated by loading it into dev.openlayers.org/sandbox/docs/examples/wkt.html. If I try to load the same wkt string into the jts testbuilder, then it reports that the polygon is self-intersecting. testbuilder identifies the point which it is objecting to but I do not believe that the error is valid - I repeat, it has been loaded into OpenLayers and is based on a polygon which was also consumed successfully into MapInfo. I'm wondering if there might be a hidden restriction to the length of the wkt string which can be consumed into JTS (and, downstream of JTS, into Solr). Any suggestions?
Cancel that - there is something wrong with the data after all
