I am having trouble understanding how to create polygon geometries using the JSONTemplater.

 

I have a JSONTemplater that takes my features and creates a GeoJSON structure that I am using. Below I outline my 2 templates (root and sub ((image 1 & 2))) where I set up the structure. My issue is when it comes to the geometry of the GeoJSON file.

Currently, since I could not figure out how the XQuery geometry functions worked, I tried to incorporate a geometryExtractor that feeds the geometry as an attribute. The problem with this method is that it reads that as a string value, and I cannot figure out how to read it as a literal object.

 

Root template

Sub template

ouput of geometryExtractor

JsonTemplater output

Try using the fme:get-json-attribute function instead.

Why not inspect features with Visual/Data Preview and Feature/Record Information before writing them into a destination dataset?
