Overview
Wkt-parser is a Dart package that converts Well-Known Text (WKT) projection strings—used in OGC and ESRI standards—into JSON format compatible with proj4dart. It enables seamless integration of geographic coordinate system definitions into Flutter applications, supporting cross-platform geolocation workflows on Android, iOS, Web, macOS, Windows, and Linux. The parser simplifies the handling of spatial reference systems by transforming complex WKT syntax into structured data for further processing.
Use cases
- Parsing OGC WKT strings
- Converting ESRI WKT to JSON
