I am trying to run a query (which I gleened from here) against GeoJson multipolygon data. It processes many of the spatial records but is stopping on a some.
I get the following error in the query messages:
Msg 6522, Level 16, State 1, Line 10
A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user-defined routine or aggregate "geography":

The query will run and produce some results but when it hits records where the NAME = 'Fairfax' and 'Roanoke', it stops with the above error.
Can anyone see the issue and know how to resolve this?

I've reduced testing data to:
I've commented out last outer apply and select WKT to see what's in.
WKT returns:
So "geography::STGeomFromText(WKT,4326).MakeValid()" cannot build geometry out of this data and fails with the error.
The failing multipolygons are those that contain holes. You can detect them by searching for
]],
.Multipolygon is collection of polygons. Each of them is collection of loops - first loop is polygon shell and other loops are holes. Each loop is collection of points.
The script tries to convert GeoJSON to WKT by unpacking these arrays, then concatenating them wrapping using WKT's
(
and)
, but fails to handle polygon with holes case. I suspect the bug is inPoly.value
- this does not handle array case, but I'm not OPENJSON expert.I guess it is possible to continue making this complicated SQL even more complex, and handle holes case as well, but I think it is more practical to convert GeoJSON to WKT strings using something with real GeoJSON parser and WKT formatter, e.g. ogr2ogr tool.
Thanks @Hank for taking this query for a spin! @Vitaly-Borisov has highlighted the specific offending geometry, this has helped immensely in solving the issue.
In the original Query, there is a
CROSS APPLY
query that creates a result set calledPolygonData
, immediately after that is anOUTER APLY
that creates a result set calledMultigonData
.Notice that MultigonData only has results
WHERE LEN(Path) = 0
The expectation here was that all non polygon geometry would yield a null value for
Path
and so we only attempt to resolve the MultiPolygon WKT if the geometry was indeed a MultiPolygon type.Updated Query, notice the where clauses within the
PolygonData
andMutigonData
queries and the use ofCOALESCE
inshapeDef
These minor changes should make it easier to adopt this logic for other geography types.
