#4468: Lower default precision produced by ST_AsGeoJSON
-------------------------+---------------------------
Reporter: pramsey | Owner: pramsey
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: high | Milestone: PostGIS 3.0.0
Component: postgis | Version: trunk
Keywords: |
-------------------------+---------------------------
Our 15-digit default produces coordinates accurate to the subatomic level.
The IEEE standard for GeoJSON suggests 7-8 digits would be fine. The
maxdecimaldigits option exists on all flavours of the function to allow
people with more precise needs to up their precision, and this will allow
users with lower needs to save some space in their network pipe.
