Just recalled the work done by Fredrik Melsom Klausen on GeoXSLT for
his master thesis:

Good to see this stuff coming in. I guess it is at least in part
related to transforming external GIS sources to dxf?

Two points:
1. We need to make sure that we track these changes/additions in the
dxf schema. Otherwise it will start to become useless.
2. I think how we store the data internally and how we express it as
xml should be treated as different (if intimately related) problems.
An element like:

<organisationUnit>
...
<polygonCoordinates>[[[39.376186,-4.715707],[39.379326,-4.719846],[39.373474,-4.717134],[39.376186,-4.715707]]],[[[39.406875,-4.683162],[39.400737,-4.690442],[39.394884,-4.687873],[39.406875,-4.683162]]],[[[39.269560,-4.652902],[39.286260,-4.663179],[39.29
...</polygonCoordinates>
...
</organisationUnit>

is both unsightly and terribly bad practice. This xml would be not
much more use than a database sql dump. We have already made that
mistake with serializing all the table relations as xml. It would be
a shame to repeat it again here where we have a fresh opportunity.

I would strongly support Jason's suggestion that we not try to
reinvent a GIS markup - which we will probably do badly - but rather
that we simply embed those elements from GML (or KML or whichever -
you guys are the experts) which we need. eg:

<organisationUnit>
...
<location><gml:Point>...</Point></location>
<area><gml:Polygon>,</gml:Polygon></area>
...
</organisationUnit>

How we choose to represent those in the database is different. if it
is totally impractical to use a standard gis markup (and I hope its
not) then at the very least we should ensure that we use home-grown
xml to represent the entities rather than embedded json. How else
would an xml parser be able to make any sense of this.

I guess the implication of what I am saying is that
writer.writeElement( FIELD_POLYGON_COORDINATES,
unit.getPolygonCoordinates() ); would need to be expanded in order to
not just dump the database content into the xml element. Or wrapped
as
writer.writeElement( FIELD_POLYGON_COORDINATES,
unit.getPolygonCoordinatesAsXML() )

I see your point, Jason, but I think the most efficient would be to
continue to store the coordinates as GeoJSON (to minimize processing
for maps inside the system), and just generate the GML when exporting
to external formats.

For this, we should always use 4326 as projection. If in the future we
want to deviate from that, we should definitely use Geoserver (which
is a good idea anyway, e.g. to act as a Web Map Server to external
applications), but this is not urgent.

Here is how I am currently representing things in the database, which
makes it really easy to generate GeoJSON on the fly:

I think this is a good step in the right direction,but should be
considered still, an interim solution. There are limitations (for
instance the specification of the coordinate system) which points to a
need to a more generic object model. There are some better
alternatives (GML for instance) in my opinion.

For instance..

<gml:Point gml:id="p21" srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG:6.6:4326">
<gml:pos dimension="2">45.67 88.56</gml:pos>
</gml:Point>

Is not so much more work for us to store, but makes sure we can begin
to import and export relatively standard data to external systems.

message:
Added latitude, longitude, polygoncoordinates to dxf

Happy to see this. I have been thinking that we don't really need
latitude and longitude when we have the coordinates, but that we need
a type field instead. The reason is that for GeoJSON generation we
need to support POINT, POLYGON and MULTIPOLYGON, and it make sense to
have these directly in the database. I have been experimenting a bit
with this lately, and it works great, but I was forced to store the
type in the geocode field.

That being said, we may also consider having more than one coordinate
field, for different levels of detail, though I'm afraid that can
easily get messy.
