LineString CSV_WKT Baseline

vectorCSV_WKTLineStringEPSG:4326tinybundled

Canonical baseline LineString stored in a CSV with a WKT column to exercise text-based geometry parsing and CSV_WKT loader behavior.

LineString geometry of linestring_csv_wkt_baseline, rendered from the case's data
LineString geometry, rendered from the case's actual geometry. Scale is normalized to the viewport and is not comparable between cases.

What this case checks

Provide a canonical line encoded as CSV_WKT so text-based vector serialization can be compared against file-driver-backed formats.

Risk types covered

Notes

Purpose

Canonical baseline LineString encoded in CSV with WKT geometry.

Data

  • Geometry: LINESTRING (10 50, 10.5 50.3, 11 50.1)
  • Attributes: id = 1, name = linestring_csv_wkt_baseline
  • Feature count: 1

Validation

  • Geometry type: LineString
  • CRS: EPSG:4326, supplied by case.yaml — the format stores none
  • Geometry equals simple_valid_linestring under shapely.normalize, which is how tests/unit/test_cross_format_canonical.py compares them. The comparison is winding-insensitive by necessity: the Shapefile specification mandates the opposite ring orientation from RFC 7946, and OGR rewrites winding on write. Orientation itself is asserted by shapefile_ring_orientation.

Generation

Generated by scripts/generate_vector_fixtures.py — do not hand-edit. The geometry is derived from params.canonical_source_case_id (simple_valid_linestring), and generate_vector_fixtures.py --check fails on any drift.

Required capabilities

  • load
  • geometry-validation
  • bounds-check
