Feature.id only String #65

Open hylkevds opened 1 year ago

RFC7946 states that Feature.id can be String or Number. Currently GeoJSON-Jackson forces the id to be a String.

Is there a specific reason for this?

This library is based on the original 2008 GeoJson specification. At this point no specific type was defined for id properties. (https://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#feature-objects)

That sounds like even more of a reason to not limit it to only String :)
