Re: [geomesa-users] Ingesting Polygons into GeoMesa

["Parise, Jonathan" <Jonathan.Parise@xxxxxxxxx>]

Chris,

Thanks for the quick reply, it is helpful.

Is there a listing of the various simple feature types somewhere? I'm trying to determine the best one for my application.

The polygon is a bounding box that I am going to use to check  for containment against another user specified bounding box in my application. Possibly using CQL's intersect function.

Thanks again,

Jon Parise

Jon,

Yes, GeoMesa can ingest and query non-point geometries.  If you are ingesting data from text files, for example, you can embed the well-known text (WKT) representation directly.  For example,
"POLYGON(-79 38, -79 39, -78 39, -78 38, -79 38)".

You just need to be sure that your simple feature type declares the geometry column to be an appropriate type.  The default "Geometry" will contain any of these, but you may want to be more specific, and declare it as type "Polygon", which is also supported.

I hope this helps; if not, please just write again.

Thanks!

Sincerely,
  -- Chris
