A heads up, CRAN feedback on the WKT format:

https://github.com/r-gris/sfdct/issues/16

It seems you need a space between "POLYGON" and the first "(", for all types. I see wicket has a mix of usages in the vignette. I couldn't reproduce the problem on my systems, but you might ensure all your usages like "POLYGON((10 14" are "POLYGON ((10 14".

Interestingly this page is not consistent on the issue - but at any rate this might help catch future problems if they come up for you

Thanks! This looks like an issue with boost geometry

Ironholds commented 7 years ago

Can you point me to the bit of the spec that requires a space?

mdsumner commented 7 years ago

Sorry, no idea - I can't find it but will come back if I learn more!

Ironholds commented 7 years ago

Please! I don't have any objection to changing it but if it's a mandatory thing I need to do it, and upstream, whereas if not..

mdsumner commented 7 years ago

Me too, it's just a heads up. I'm not asking anything. Sorry
