Examples

const pt = fromWKT('POINT(0 2)');
const line = fromWKT('LINESTRING(1 2, 2 2, 2 0)');
const poly = fromWKT('POLYGON((0 0, 0 1, 1 1, 1 0, 0 0))');

const pt = fromWKT('POINT(0 2)'); const line = fromWKT('LINESTRING(1 2, 2 2, 2 0)'); const poly = fromWKT('POLYGON((0 0, 0 1, 1 1, 1 0, 0 0))');

will fix unclosed ring

const poly = fromWKT('POLYGON((0 0, 1 0, 1 1))', { fix: true });

const poly = fromWKT('POLYGON((0 0, 1 0, 1 1))', { fix: true });
