Extract of KML data using bounding box even if shape is used #125

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
If trying to extract schools for example by a drawn shape (or by an identified 
feature such as a town shape), the KML export is using the bbox of the shape. 
For shapefile it uses a Filter and supplies the list of coordinates which is 
the correct way.  See attached image which shows a drawn shape which should 
select 1 school.  For a shapefile export it selects on school.  For a KML 
export it selects 2 schools, as the bounding box of the shape also includes the 
other school. 

This will also apply to GeoTiff extracts, but I think that rectangular is 
better in that case.
