Use WKT instead of GeoJSON #78

GeoSPARQL implementations generally assume that geometries are encoded in Well Known Text (WKT) format. GeoJSON support may be added more broadly in the future with GeoSPARQL 1.1, but for now we should aim to make our geometries queryable by off the shelf RDF databases with GeoSPARQL support which seem to mainly support WKT.

@blushi to create 1 follow-up issue in regen-web: update location form and map to use wkt. This issue will be to track any further back-end work for this (and potentially updating the existing data).
