v.24.8New Feature
Added support for reading MULTILINESTRING geometry in WKT format
Added support for readingMULTILINESTRINGgeometry inWKTformat using functionreadWKTLineString. #67647 (Jacob Reckhard).
Why it matters
This feature enables users to parse and handleMULTILINESTRING geometries expressed in the well-known text (WKT) format. It solves the limitation of previously unsupported multi-line string geometries, allowing for improved spatial data processing and analysis within ClickHouse.How to use it
Users can now use the functionreadWKTLineString to read and convert MULTILINESTRING WKT representations into ClickHouse's internal geometry format for further querying and processing.
