Entity Framework Core 3.1 with NetTopologySuite.Geometries.Point: SqlException: The supplied value is not a valid instance of data type geography

问题

I have a model that looks like this:

public class Facility
{
    [Key]
    [DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity)]
    public int Id { get; set; }

    public NetTopologySuite.Geometries.Point Location { get; set; }
}

Test code for adding a Point:

var testFacility = new Facility();
testFacility.Location = new NetTopologySuite.Geometries.Point(13.003725d, 55.604870d) { SRID = 3857 };

//Other values tested with the same error error

//testFacility.Location = new NetTopologySuite.Geometries.Point(13.003725d, 55.604870d);

//testFacility.Location = new NetTopologySuite.Geometries.Point(55.604870d, 13.003725d);

//var geometryFactory = NtsGeometryServices.Instance.CreateGeometryFactory(srid: 3857);
//var currentLocation = geometryFactory.CreatePoint(new Coordinate(13.003725d, 55.604870d));
//testFacility.Location = currentLocation;

db.Facilities.Add(testFacility);
//Exception on Save
db.SaveChanges();

I'm using the following NuGets, version 3.1.0

Microsoft.AspNetCore.Identity.EntityFrameworkCore
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer.NetTopologySuite

The exception I get on save is the following:

SqlException: The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Parameter 7 ("@p6"): The supplied value is not a valid instance of data type geography. Check the source data for invalid values. An example of an invalid value is data of numeric type with scale greater than precision.

According to all documentation it should be X for longitude and Y for latitude so I don't think that is a problem. I tried to reverse the coordinates just in case but I got the same error as you can see in the examples I have tried.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/core/modeling/spatial

Lat = Y Long = X

I can't find out anything obvious that seems wrong. Optionsbuilder is set up, the table is created with Data Type geography that worked really well with DbGeography for Entity Framework 6.

var optionsBuilder = new DbContextOptionsBuilder<ApplicationDbContext>();
optionsBuilder.UseSqlServer("Server=(localdb)\\mssqllocaldb;Database=TestDb;Trusted_Connection=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=true",
    x => x.UseNetTopologySuite());

var db = new ApplicationDbContext(optionsBuilder.Options);

There is no specific cases to handle for a single Point either what I can see in documentation for SQL server.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/core/modeling/spatial#sql-server

The coordinates I'm saving is from Google Maps and therefore EPSG 3857 is used.

https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/48949/epsg-3857-or-4326-for-googlemaps-openstreetmap-and-leaflet

What am I missing?

回答1:

TLDR

The SRID is not present in SQL Server sys.spatial_reference_systems

Change to one that exist like 4326 and it will work:

select *
from sys.spatial_reference_systems
where spatial_reference_id = '4326'

Long answer:

Google Maps API uses EPSG 3857 but Google Maps Web application uses EPSG 4326

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/markers

https://www.google.com/maps/@55.604933,13.003662,14z

Therefore a point from Google Maps Web Application should be created and saved like this:

var testFacility = new Facility();
testFacility.Location = new NetTopologySuite.Geometries.Point(13.003725d, 55.604870d) { SRID = 4326 };
db.Facilities.Add(testFacility);
db.SaveChanges();

It was however a bit tricky to project EPSG 4326 coordinates to EPSG 3857 coordinate system. Microsoft recommends using ProjNet4GeoAPI so I decided to use that.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/core/modeling/spatial#srid-ignored-during-client-operations

I have verified that it works here:

http://epsg.io/transform#s_srs=4326&t_srs=3857&x=13.003725&y=55.604870

Example conversion:

var x = 13.003725d;
var y = 55.604870d;

var epsg3857ProjectedCoordinateSystem = ProjNet.CoordinateSystems.ProjectedCoordinateSystem.WebMercator;
var epsg4326GeographicCoordinateSystem = ProjNet.CoordinateSystems.GeographicCoordinateSystem.WGS84;

var coordinateTransformationFactory = new ProjNet.CoordinateSystems.Transformations.CoordinateTransformationFactory();
var coordinateTransformation = coordinateTransformationFactory.CreateFromCoordinateSystems(epsg4326GeographicCoordinateSystem, epsg3857ProjectedCoordinateSystem);

var epsg4326Coordinate = new GeoAPI.Geometries.Coordinate(x, y);

var epsg3857Coordinate = coordinateTransformation.MathTransform.Transform(epsg4326Coordinate);

Make sure that your Lat and Long are in the right positions and that you provide a valid SRID.
