[Maps] Add support for GeoJSON text sequences in Maps #46853

Open mbarretta opened 5 years ago

mbarretta commented 5 years ago

Describe the feature: The GeoJSON text sequences spec describes a subtype of GeoJSON that does away with the "wrapping" of geometries by a parent Geometry, Feature, or FeatureCollection type, leaving the logic of deciding the "right" parent type to users:

How producers and parsers of GeoJSON text sequences communicate rules for allowed GeoJSON types in exchanged sequences is not specified in this document.

This request is to add support for GeoJSON sequences in both the GeoJSON upload and as data in geo_shape indexed fields.

Type-assignment rules

Describe a specific use case for the feature: datasets of GeoJSON text sequences are growing in number and are often created by "naive" conversions from other formats like shapefiles. This feature would expand the range of data that can be viewed in Maps.

@mbarretta have you heard of other customers looking for this enhancement?

ThomThomson commented 1 year ago

Updating this to loe:days because @nickpeihl discovered that loaders.gl supports NDJSON. Also updating this to impact:low because we haven't heard of any additional customer requests for it.

@ThomThomson No, this hasn't come up again, but hard to tell how many people just decide to work around it vs ask for the enhancement.
