Convert feature to wkt

[bkoehl]

Hey there,

I have a feature inside a gdb.
For another project I need this feature as WKT.
Is there a solution for doing this with Python?

I found an additional package for python called shapely.
It looks as if it could be helpful.
has anyone made any experiences with it?

Hello Benjamin

shapely together with the geojson module should get there for you. Why geojson?
You can convert arcpy geometry objects to and from GeoJSON representations:

>>> arcpy.PointGeometry(arcpy.Point(5,5)).__geo_interface__
{'coordinates': (5.0001220703125, 5.0001220703125), 'type': 'Point'}

>>> arcpy.AsShape({'coordinates': (5.0001220703125, 5.0001220703125), 'type': 'Point'})
<PointGeometry object at 0x14599fd0[0x145c2560]>
