Hi,
I have data that contains polygons in wkt. When uploading data in
GeoRSS, will the polygons be properly processed? If not, what format
should I use to upload polygons?
Thanks in advance,
Hugo

Hugo,
You can look here (http://www.georss.org/simple) to see how to encode polygons using GeoRSS Simple. It's very similar to WKT but you'll need to remove some of the WKT decorations. I am unsure about multi-part polygons.

Hi Hugo,
Polygons are supported in the simple format. Twitter outputs polygons as GeoRSS and we frequently pull in those feeds.
