How to handle styling information in our database #39

Closed aazaff closed 4 years ago

So... the NCGMP09 and GeMS specification use semi-colon separate rgb values. I would strongly prefer 6 or 8 digit hexcode equivalents.

This is part of the broader question of how to handle styling information in the database. One solution would be to add a "styles" table to the NCGMP09/GeMS schemas. This table might have a few different fields:

  1. hexcode
  2. Feature Style Specification
  3. styled-layer descriptor XML column.

I think that we just won't do this.
