将地理数据导入Mongodb时出错：无法从对象，格式错误的几何体中提取地理键

Question

I am trying to import some geo data (more than 40K) to mongodb(3) but I get sometime an error for some documents:

"code" : 16755,
"errmsg" : "insertDocument :: caused by :: 16755 Can't extract geo keys from object, malformed geometry

I have checked the document and it's a valid geojson, respecting mongodb format [long, lat]. And when I insert the document without the polygon, it works...

I cannot figure out what's wrong with those polygons. Here is an example:

Thanks for help.

{

  slug: "alco-montpellier",
  cities: ["MONTPELLIER"],

If you insert the document via Mongo Shell in MongoDB v3.0, you should see an error message:

  "writeError": {
    "code": 16755,
    "errmsg": "Can't extract geo keys: ... 
    Loop is not valid: ...
    ...
    Edges 11 and 13 cross. Edge locations in degrees: [3.8342850, 43.6212770]-[3.8345610, 43.6218040] and [3.8345340, 43.6217530]-[3.8345610, 43.6218030]

Checking those coordinates, they are too close together (almost identical) that creates an anomaly in the polygon shape: [3.834561, 43.6218 04 ] and [3.834561, 43.6218 03 ].

If we visualise it in geodndmap.mongodb.com , you can see that there is a tiny edge causing an invalid loop. This edge crossing is caused by the coordinates above.
