Feature Representation

In addition to the generic FME feature attributes that FME Workbench adds to all features (see About Feature Attributes), this format adds the format-specific attributes described in this section.

Geometry

The geometry of GeoJSON features may be identified by the json_type attribute. The valid values for this attribute are:

json_type Description

json_no_geom

FME Feature with no geometry

json_point

Point feature

json_line

Linear feature

json_polygon

Simple polygon or donut feature

json_collection

Feature with multiple geometries

No Geometry

json_type: json_no_geom

Features with their json_type attribute set to json_no_geom do not contain any geometry data.

Points

json_type:json_point

Features with their json_type set to json_point are single coordinate features or an aggregate of single points.

Lines

json_type:json_line

Features with their json_type set to json_line are polyline features or an aggregate of polylines.

Areas

json_type:json_polygon

Features with their json_type set to json_polygon are polygon features which may or may not have interior boundaries, or an aggregate of such polygons.

Aggregates

json_type:json_collection

Features with their json_type set to json_collection are a heterogeneous collection of multiple geometries.
