[postgis] About description of usage of C Clients (libpq) in PostGIS Manual

[Paul Ramsey]

I hate to toss it back on you, but... :) The JDBC objects include some
examples of code which parses well-known text format. You could use them
as a template for PHP code to turn the well-known text into SVG.
Basically, it's just a matter of writing a well-known text parser.
Well-known text is described in the OGC 'Simple Features Specification
for SQL'.

POINT(x y z)
LINESTRING(x1 y1 z1, x2 y2 z2, x3 y3 z3)
POLYGON((x1 y1 z1, x2 y2 z2, x3 y3 z3),(x4 y4 z4, x5 y5 z5, x6 y6 z6))
MULTIPOINT(x1 y1 z1, x2 y2 z2)
MULTILINESTRING((x1 y1 z1, x2 y2 z2, x3 y3 z3),(x4 y4 z4, x5 y5 z5, x6
y6 z6))
MULTIPOLYGON(((x1 y1 z1, x2 y2 z2, x3 y3 z3),(x4 y4 z4, x5 y5 z5, x6 y6
z6)),((x1 y1 z1, x2 y2 z2, x3 y3 z3),(x4 y4 z4, x5 y5 z5, x6 y6 z6)))
