Class WKTReader

java.lang.Object

org.locationtech.jts.io.WKTReader

public class WKTReader
extends java.lang.Object

Converts a geometry in Well-Known Text format to a Geometry.

WKTReader supports extracting Geometry objects from either Readers or Strings. This allows it to function as a parser to read Geometry objects from text blocks embedded in other data formats (e.g. XML).

A WKTReader is parameterized by a GeometryFactory, to allow it to create Geometry objects of the appropriate implementation. In particular, the GeometryFactory determines the PrecisionModel and SRID that is used.

The WKTReader converts all input numbers to the precise internal representation.

Notes:

• Keywords are case-insensitive.
• The reader supports non-standard "LINEARRING" tags.
• The reader uses Double.parseDouble to perform the conversion of ASCII numbers to floating point. This means it supports the Java syntax for floating point literals (including scientific notation).

Syntax

The following syntax specification describes the version of Well-Known Text supported by JTS. (The specification uses a syntax language similar to that used in the C and Java language specifications.)

As of version 1.15, JTS can read (but not write) WKT Strings including Z, M or ZM in the name of the geometry type (ex. POINT Z, LINESTRINGZM). Note that it only makes the reader more flexible, but JTS could already read 3D coordinates from WKT String and still can't read 4D coordinates.
