Hi,
At the moment the geojson reader automatically converts an attribute where
the first feature is null to string. Is it possible to check values also
from the next features and based on that to set the type of the column?
For example for the following geojson the type of int_prop2 and dbl_prop1
will be string:
{
"features": [
{
"geometry": {
"coordinates": [ 1.0, 0.0 ],
"type": "Point"
},
"properties": {
"name": "point2",
"int_prop1": 2,
"int_prop2": null,
"dbl_prop1": 2.1,
"dbl_prop2": null
},
"type": "Feature"
},
{
"geometry": {
"coordinates": [ 0.0, 0.0 ],
"type": "Point"
},
"properties": {
"name": "point1",
"int_prop1": 1,
"int_prop2": 1,
"dbl_prop1": 1.1,
"dbl_prop2": 1.1
},
"type": "Feature"
}
],
"type": "FeatureCollection"
}
Result in the console when using ogrinfo with gdal version 2.1.0, released
2016/04/25:
name: String (0.0)
int_prop1: Integer (0.0)
int_prop2: String (0.0)
dbl_prop1: Real (0.0)
dbl_prop2: String (0.0)
OGRFeature(OGRGeoJSON):0
name (String) = point2
int_prop1 (Integer) = 2
int_prop2 (String) = (null)
dbl_prop1 (Real) = 2.1
dbl_prop2 (String) = (null)
POINT (1 0)
OGRFeature(OGRGeoJSON):1
name (String) = point1
int_prop1 (Integer) = 1
int_prop2 (String) = 1
dbl_prop1 (Real) = 1.1
dbl_prop2 (String) = 1.1000
POINT (0 0)
