I have a database with geometries encoded in a field in the following format:



'1 L 410012.85,416177.69; +30.16,4; 12.46,0; 13.35,-0.67'



Where L specifies that it is a Polyline, then 410012.85,416177.69 is the starting point. The rest of vertices are calculated by adding or subtracting X and Y. So for example:




  • Vertex 1 is starting point (X=410012.85 Y=416177.69)

  • Vertex number 2 is X=410012.85+30.16 Y=416177.69+4

  • Vertex 3 is Vertex2(X)+12.46 Vertex2(Y)+0

  • Vertex 4 is Vertex3(X)+13.35 Vertex3(Y)-0.67


Has anyone seen something like this before?



Generating a standard format by splitting the text in multiple parts is something that probably can be done. However, I'd be more interested in knowing if it is actually a known format in GIS (does it have a name?) and if already exists a way of translating it into a standard format.
