Hi guys,
Appreciate the quick response. Thanks!
@Jonathan:
I don't think that all data is put as JSON string, there are fields
like "__mlocate__created_by": 1, where values are not in quotes, indicating
numbers.
Also, the problem appears to be in MVT format only as GeoJSON and TopoJSON
are returning me the value in expected format, i.e., as decimal numbers.
@Andrea:
I will be happy to take this task and make improvements. Since I am total
newbie to Geoserver, I would very much appreciate if you could broadly
point me to where I should start looking or connect me with someone who can
do so. Meanwhile I'll go through the Geoserver contribution guide
<http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/docguide/contributing.html>.
Cheers,
Priyanshu
