Steve,

A quick look suggests that you need spaces separating the ordinates, not commas: http://www.georss.org/simple.html. That page says "whitespace", but I think that it means strictly "space".

Also, our (Cadcorp's that is) Map Browser can read GeoRSS feeds (Atom and RSS, Simple and GML).  You can get it here: http://www.cadcorp.com/products_geographical_information_systems/map_browser.htm  You will also need to download the GeoRSS Plug-in from here: http://www.cadcorp.com/cadcorp_sis_plugins/GeoRSSGPXMIDASPlug_ins.zip.

Martin

Subject: [georss] GeoRSS reader that displays Lines and shapes?
 
Hi - I'm debugging a feed generator and would like to try my feed with a reader that supports lines and polygons. A stripped down sample feed is here:

http://veteam.members.winisp.net/rsstest/RSSCorrected.xml

I tried to view it with Mapufacture and Acme, but in both cases nothing displays. So either something is bad in my feed, or the 2 readers I tried don't like something in the feed (like the polyline?)

Thanks for any assist. A pointer to a reader that displays Lines/shapes or verification that something is indeed whacked in my feed would be most welcome. Thanks!


It should render something like this:

The source looks like:
