gem 'geosparql_to_geojson'

This gem's main function is taking a GeoSparql string and converting it into GeoJSON.

Calling GeosparqlToGeojson#convert_to_geojson and passing in valid GeoSparql string will convert the GeoSparql to GeoJSON and return a GeosparqlToGeojson::GeoJson object.

Properties can optionally be passed in as well as whether the data should be reversed during the convertion.

geosparql = 'POINT(0.1, 51.5)'
properties = {name: 'London'}

point = GeosparqlToGeojson.convert_to_geojson(geosparql_values: geosparql, geosparql_properties: properties, reverse: true)
#=> GeosparqlToGeojson::GeoJson

Calling point.geojson will return a GeoJSON string. For example:

{"type": "FeatureCollection",
  "features": [
    {
       "type": "Feature",
       "geometry": {
         "type": "Point",
         "coordinates": [
          51.5,
          0.1
        ]
      },
      "properties": {"name": "London"}
    }
  ]
}

Calling point.validate will return a GeosparqlToGeojson::Validator object which can be used to validate the generated GeoJSON.

validated_geojson = GeosparqlToGeojson::Validator.new(point)

validated_geojson.valid?
#=> true

validated_geojson.errors
#=> []
