I second it. Right now I have a lot of CSV-exports from a geoserver. There is always a column with WKT included. |

It seems that this proposal did not make it into version 2. This is a pity, as there is already a working implementation in frictionless-py. Is there any hope that the wkt format will be included in version 2 or version 2.1? |

Hello
In TableSchema, you can specify geometry field types as
geojson
orgeopoint
But from my own experience,
wkt
strings are more commonly used to store geometries in a table than geojson strings.Let's notice that
wkt
is used in frictionless-geojson project.For me,
wkt
format deserves to be taken seriously taken into account (and geoCSV)This
wkt
implementation would surely really be appreciated by the Geographic Information Systems community.What do you think of it ?
