worldKit can parse and display all geometries and variations.

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

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:
