[Geoserver-users] KML output for Google Earth

Norbert_Dephoff · August 3, 2006, 8:36am

Hi all,

I have a problem with the KML output for Google Earth.
There are only 4 decimals for the coordinates and
i think that's not enough to display my data correct.
Here is a short part of the KML-File:

      <MultiGeometry>
        <Point>
          <coordinates>7.540198357238323,51.99248718351252,0</coordinates>
        </Point>
        <Polygon xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml">
          <outerBoundaryIs>
            <LinearRing>
              <coordinates xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" decimal="." cs="," ts=" ">
                  7.5402,51.9924,0 7.5401,51.99250000000001,0 7.5401,51.99250000000001,0
                  7.5401,51.99250000000001,0 7.5401,51.99250000000001,0 7.5401,51.99250000000001,0
                  7.5401,51.99250000000001,0 7.5401,51.99250000000001,0 7.5402,51.99250000000001,0
                  7.5403,51.99260000000001,0 7.5403,51.99250000000001,0 7.5403,51.99250000000001,0
                  7.5403,51.9924,0 7.5403,51.9924,0 7.5403,51.9924,0 7.5402,51.9924,0
              </coordinates>
            </LinearRing>
          </outerBoundaryIs>
        </Polygon>
      </MultiGeometry>

I tried to configure it with the parameter "Number of Decimals" in
the Server Configuration. But it didn't work.
The output as WMS and GML (with more than 4 decimals) works fine.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks,
Norbert

I've noticed the same thing. I will take a look at it and try and get you a fix today.

Ivan brought this up. File a bug for it, and go ahead and fix it.

All we need to do is set the numDecimals on the geometry writer. I think we should just use the same global value that we let users set for GML. Check you GetFeatures for GML works, and just use the same call when KML calls the geometry encoder.
