空间数据类型（几何）到 GeoJSON

Question

I want to convert geom ( geometry ) datatype to GeoJSON. How could I do that?

For example, the geometry in WKT:

    POLYGON((455216.346127297 4288433.28426224,455203.386722146 4288427.76317716,455207.791765017 4288417.51116228,455220.784166744 4288423.30230044,455216.346127297 4288433.28426224))

To the following GeoJSON:

{ "type": "Polygon",
    "coordinates": [
      [ [100.0, 0.0], [101.0, 0.0], [101.0, 1.0], [100.0, 1.0], [100.0, 0.0] ],
      [ [100.2, 0.2], [100.8, 0.2], [100.8, 0.8], [100.2, 0.8], [100.2, 0.2] ]
    ]
}

Answer 1

I had this same need. We have a large database containing tables with GEOMETRY columns in SQL Server. I felt that it would be more desirable to be able to get a single string object as a result from a stored proceedure that would contain the GeoJson. I wrote a function that takes a geometry instance as an object and returns a GeoJson string.

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[geomToGeoJSON] (@geom GEOMETRY)
RETURNS VARCHAR(MAX)
AS
BEGIN
-- Declare the return variable here
    DECLARE @geoJSON VARCHAR(MAX)


    DECLARE @Ngeom GEOMETRY
    DECLARE @ptCounter INT
    DECLARE @numPt INT
    DECLARE @ringCounter INT
    DECLARE @numRing INT
    DECLARE @gCounter INT
    DECLARE @numGeom INT
    DECLARE @handled BIT = 0
    DECLARE @extRing GEOMETRY
    DECLARE @intRing GEOMETRY

    -- fix bad geometries and enforce ring orientation
    SET @geom = @geom.STUnion(@geom.STPointN(1)).MakeValid()

    -- Point ----------------------------
    IF (@geom.STGeometryType() = 'Point')
    BEGIN
        SET @geoJSON = '{ "type": "Point", "coordinates": [' + LTRIM(RTRIM(STR(@geom.STX, 38, 8))) + ', ' + LTRIM(RTRIM(STR(@geom.STY, 38, 8))) + '] }'
        SET @handled = 1
    END


    -- MultiPoint ---------------------------------------------
    IF (
        @handled = 0
        AND @geom.STGeometryType() = 'MultiPoint'
        )

        SET @numGeom = @geom.STNumGeometries()

        SET @geoJSON = '{ "type": "MultiPoint", "coordinates": ['

            SET @gCounter += 1

            -- set the ring orientation so that they are consistent
            SET @intRing = @intRing.STUnion(@intRing.STPointN(1)).MakeValid()

            SELECT

                END

                SET @geoJSON = LEFT(@geoJSON, LEN(@geoJSON) - 1) + ']'

                SET @ringCounter += 1
            END



            SET @geoJSON += '],'
            SET @gCounter += 1
        END

        SET @geoJSON = LEFT(@geoJSON, LEN(@geoJSON) - 1) + '] }'
        SET @handled = 1
    END






    IF (@handled = 0)
    BEGIN
        SET @geoJSON = '{"type": "' + @geom.STGeometryType() + '", "coordinates": []}'
    END




    RETURN @geoJSON



END

Then I can either just select an individual GeoJSON object like this:

    SELECT dbo.geomToGeoJSON(GEOMCOLNAME) FROM DB.gis.PARCEL WHERE PARCEL = 'R1525750900'

and get a result that looks like

    {
        "type": "Polygon",
        "coordinates": [
            [
                [-116.27593761, 43.62939598],
                [-116.27558219, 43.62939633],
                [-116.27558253, 43.62955520],
                [-116.27582493, 43.62955445],
                [-116.27582534, 43.62963010],
                [-116.27593893, 43.62962975],
                [-116.27593761, 43.62939598]
            ]
        ]
    }

Or I can package an entire set of objects into a FeatureCollection like this:

        DECLARE @GeoJSON VARCHAR(MAX)
        SET @GeoJSON = '{"type": "FeatureCollection", "features": ['

        SELECT
            @GeoJSON += '{"type": "Feature", "geometry": ' + sde_apps.dbo.geomToGeoJSON(SHAPE) + ', "properties": { "Parcel": "' + PARCEL + '"}},'
        FROM
            db.gis.PARCEL
        WHERE
            SUBNM LIKE @subnm


        SET @GeoJSON = LEFT(@GeoJSON, LEN(@GeoJSON) - 1) + ']}'

        SELECT
            @GeoJSON

Query performance depends on the complexity and number of geometries, but I typically get a result in ~2 tenths of a second.

I have validated by using example geometries from MSDN and then entering the resulting GeoJSON into http://geojsonlint.com/ . I know this is a year old but I still have a need and I suspect anyone without a mapserver could generate their own simple mapserver using something like this to draw layers on Bing Maps, etc.

Answer 2

I think, you can produce geojson at server side when you get data from Sql Server.

You should examine GeoJSON.Net and similar question

var modelF = new List<GeoJSON.Net.Feature.Feature>();
foreach (DataRow dr in ds.Tables[0].Rows)
     {
       var point = new GeoJSON.Net.Geometry.Point(new GeoJSON.Net.Geometry.GeographicPosition(Convert.ToDouble(dr["latitude"].ToString()), Convert.ToDouble(dr["longitude"].ToString())));
       var featureProperties = new Dictionary<string, object> { };
       foreach (DataColumn dataColumn in ds.Tables[0].Columns)
            {
              featureProperties.Add(dataColumn.ColumnName, dr[dataColumn].ToString());
            }
       modelF.Add(new GeoJSON.Net.Feature.Feature(point, featureProperties));
     }
var fcol = new FeatureCollection(modelF);
var serializedData = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(fcol, Formatting.Indented, new JsonSerializerSettings { ContractResolver = new CamelCasePropertyNamesContractResolver(), NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore });
return serializedData;

have a goo day.

Answer 3

If you have access to PostgreSQL/PostGIS, you can use ST_GeomFromText to read in the geometry and ST_AsGeoJSON to save the geometry as a GeoJSON:

SELECT ST_AsGeoJSON(ST_GeomFromText('POLYGON((455216.346127297 
 4288433.28426224,455203.386722146 4288427.76317716,455207.791765017
 4288417.51116228,455220.784166744 4288423.30230044,455216.346127297
 4288433.28426224))'));

, which generates:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 {"type":"Polygon","coordinates":[[[455216.346127297,4288433.28426224],
[455203.386722146,4288427.76317716],[455207.791765017,4288417.51116228],
[455220.784166744,4288423.30230044],[455216.346127297,4288433.28426224]]]}

    (1 row)

Answer 4

That works for me (SQL Server)

  CREATE FUNCTION dbo.GEO_to_json( @geo GEOGRAPHY)
RETURNS nvarchar(MAX) AS
BEGIN
RETURN  
(SELECT
'{' +
(CASE @geo.STGeometryType()
WHEN 'POINT' THEN
'"type": "Point","coordinates":' +
REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@geo.ToString(),'POINT ',''),'(','['),')',']'),' ',',')
WHEN 'POLYGON' THEN
'"type": "Polygon","coordinates":' +
'[' + REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@geo.ToString(),'POLYGON ',''),'(','['),')',']'),'], ',']],['),', ','],['),' ',',') + ']'
WHEN 'MULTIPOLYGON' THEN
'"type": "MultiPolygon","coordinates":' +
'[' + REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@geo.ToString(),'MULTIPOLYGON ',''),'(','['),')',']'),'], ',']],['),', ','],['),' ',',') + ']'
WHEN 'MULTILINESTRING' THEN
'"type": "MultiLineString","coordinates":' +
'[' + REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@geo.ToString(),'MULTILINESTRING ',''),'(','['),')',']'),'], ',']],['),', ','],['),' ',',') + ']'
WHEN 'MULTIPOINT' THEN
'"type": "MultiPoint","coordinates":' +
REPLACE( REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@geo.ToString(),'MULTIPOINT ',''),'(','['),')',']'),' ',','),',,',', ')
WHEN 'LINESTRING' THEN
'"type": "LineString","coordinates":' +
'[' + REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@geo.ToString(),'LINESTRING ',''),'(','['),')',']'),'], ',']],['),', ','],['),' ',',') + ']'
ELSE NULL
END)

END
