QGIS plugin that allows you to view the WKT, EWKT or JSON of a geometry.
This plugin displays the selected features' WKT,EWKT or JSON representation. Copy the textual representation of your feature and paste it into other apps and api's directly.
The plugin can be configured via the 'Plugins' menu.
The config allows users to configure the default tool selected on the Toolbar, as well as specify the number of decimal places in text exported via the tool. The auto setting takes a guess at the number of decimal places that are appropriate based on the layers CRS.
It differs from QGIS's Core copy functionality by only extracting the features WKT, rather than the entire record. Simply select a feature, press the button and the WKT,EWKT or JSON represenation will be displayed in a dialog box where you can copy its content for use in creating or updating geometries in SQL statements.
Based on the QGIS 2.0 Plugin of the same name by Hugo Ledoux https://github.com/hugoledoux/QGIS-getWKT. Migrated to QGIS 3.0 by Paul Skeen.
On a system with OSGeo, open the OSGeo Shell and run build.bat in the project folder. The release will be compiled into a folder named 'QGIS3-getWKT'.
