I'm using the Data Interoperability extension and I'm attempting to read in a csv file that has a column with a string of coordinates in it. I've tried loading it into the Spatial ETL Tool CSV reader, using the coordinate concatenator and then the area builder. I get a rejected feature warning when I try running the tool. Can anyone offer some pointers for this?

Reading a CSV file with multiple coordinates in one attribute
Best answer by erik_jan
Use a AttributeCreator to concatenate the coordinate string into this format:
POLYGON ((0 0,10 0,10 10,0 10,0 0))
Then use the GeometryReplacer (OGC Well Known Text) to read the attribute as geometry.
Hope this helps.
