The GeoRSS reader returns features with the same schema for each of the different XML formats. The following tables explain which XML elements are mapped to which feature attributes.
When a feature is passed to the GeoRSS writer, it will be treated as an Entry type feature unless its feature type is Feed. This means that the GeoRSS writer will always treat features as if they were output by the GeoRSS reader. Any attributes that could not have been produced by the GeoRSS reader will be ignored.
If a feature has no value for certain required attributes, the GeoRSS writer will provide a default value for the attribute.
