Extract coordinates from KML file in Java

Solution 1

Following the javadocs (unofficial) you need to check - using instanceof - each Feature whether is is a Placemark, if yes cast to it and get the Geometry which itself needs to be checked whether it is a Polygon, if yes then cast to it. After that the path to the coordinates is the following (just as it come in the kml-file):

getOuterBoundaryIs > getlinearRing > getCoordinates

Here is how it looks like in code:

@Test
public void parseKml() {
    String src = "misctests/stackoverflow/kml/labasa.kml";
    try(InputStream is = getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(src)) {
        Assert.assertNotNull(is);
        Kml kml = Kml.unmarshal(is);
        Feature feature = kml.getFeature();
        parseFeature(feature);
    }
}

private void parseFeature(Feature feature) {
    if(feature != null) {
        if(feature instanceof Document) {
            Document document = (Document) feature;
            List<Feature> featureList = document.getFeature();
            for(Feature documentFeature : featureList) {
                if(documentFeature instanceof Placemark) {
                    Placemark placemark = (Placemark) documentFeature;
                    Geometry geometry = placemark.getGeometry();
                    parseGeometry(geometry);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

private void parseGeometry(Geometry geometry) {
    if(geometry != null) {
        if(geometry instanceof Polygon) {
            Polygon polygon = (Polygon) geometry;
            Boundary outerBoundaryIs = polygon.getOuterBoundaryIs();
            if(outerBoundaryIs != null) {
                LinearRing linearRing = outerBoundaryIs.getLinearRing();
                if(linearRing != null) {
                    List<Coordinate> coordinates = linearRing.getCoordinates();
                    if(coordinates != null) {
                        for(Coordinate coordinate : coordinates) {
                            parseCoordinate(coordinate);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

private void parseCoordinate(Coordinate coordinate) {
    if(coordinate != null) {
        System.out.println("Longitude: " +  coordinate.getLongitude());
        System.out.println("Latitude : " +  coordinate.getLatitude());
        System.out.println("Altitude : " +  coordinate.getAltitude());
        System.out.println("");
    }
}

With respect to A4L answer , thank you so much while i have added some more extraction methods which will get data from folder and document with point line and polygon extraction with spring MVC using javaapi4kml using package

Came across this post, so here is part of the code of function I have been using in my app to extract Place mark name & coordinates from a String kmlText.

    if (kmlText != null & kmlText.length() > 0) {
    // Change case of relevant tags to match our search string case
    kmlText = kmlText.replaceAll("(?i)<Placemark>", "<Placemark>")
        .replaceAll("(?i)</Placemark>", "</Placemark>")
        .replaceAll("(?i)<name>", "<name>")
        .replaceAll("(?i)</name>", "</name>")
        .replaceAll("(?i)<coordinates>", "<coordinates>")
        .replaceAll("(?i)</coordinates>", "</coordinates>");
    // Get <Placemark> tag
    String[] kmlPlacemarks = kmlText.split("</Placemark>");
    if (kmlPlacemarks.length > 0) {
        for (Integer i = 0; i < kmlPlacemarks.length; i++) {
            // Add '</Placemark>' to the end - actually not necessary
            kmlPlacemarks[i] += "</Placemark>";
            if (kmlPlacemarks[i].indexOf("<Placemark>") > -1)
                /* Trim front to start from '<Placemark>'
                Otherwise additional tags may be in between leading
                to parsing of incorrect values especially Name */
                kmlPlacemarks[i] = kmlPlacemarks[i].substring(kmlPlacemarks[i].indexOf("<Placemark>"));
        }
        String tmpPlacemarkName;
        String tmpPlacemarkCoordinates;
        for (String kmlPlacemark: kmlPlacemarks)
            if ((kmlPlacemark.indexOf("<name>") > -1 && kmlPlacemark.indexOf("</name>") > -1) &&
                    (kmlPlacemark.indexOf("<coordinates>") > -1 && kmlPlacemark.indexOf("</coordinates>") > -1)) {
                tmpPlacemarkCoordinates = kmlPlacemark.substring(kmlPlacemark.indexOf("<coordinates>") + 13, kmlPlacemark.indexOf("</coordinates>"));
                tmpPlacemarkName = kmlPlacemark.substring(kmlPlacemark.indexOf("<name>") + 6, kmlPlacemark.indexOf("</name>"));
            }
        }
}

    I'm trying to parse a Kml file in Java. Cause I need to take the coordinates of a Placemark, to generate a poligon in java, and use it.

    But my problem , is that i'm using JAK this library to parse it, and i'm not able to extract the information that i want.(I read the "help" in the official page, but I didn't found any help abut my problem)

    I'm trying to do something like that:

    final Kml kml = Kml.unmarshal(new File("C:/Users/A556520/Documents/Proyectos/GeoFencing/res/labasa.kml"));
    final Document document = (Document)kml.getFeature();       
    List<Feature> listafeatures = document.getFeature();        
    

    But in this point I don't know how to extract the coordinates.

    The file I'm trying to parse is this one: la basa
