4D Data in GeoJson in PostGIS
I'm trying to store 4-D data ("LINGSTRING ZM") in Postgres/PostGIS, and it seems that GeoJson loses 4-D data:
select ST_AsText(ST_GeomFromGeoJSON('{"type":"LineString","coordinates":[[1,2,3,4],[4,5,6,7],[7,8,9,9]]}'))
Yields: "LINESTRING Z (1 2 4.65371818235691e-310,4 5 4.65371818235691e-310,7 8 4.65371818235691e-310)"
. And If I'm going WKT all the way, it works just fine.
Is this a problem with GeoJson definition? With PostGIS support of GeoJson?
Versions:
"POSTGIS="2.1.2 r12389" GEOS="3.4.2-CAPI-1.8.2 r3921" PROJ="Rel. 4.8.0, 6 March 2012" GDAL="GDAL 1.10.1, released 2013/08/26" LIBXML="2.9.1" LIBJSON="UNKNOWN" RASTER"
"PostgreSQL 9.3.24 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.4) 4.8.4, 64-bit"

Read the second comment on this question. According to RFC 7946 “Implementations SHOULD NOT extend positions beyond three elements because the semantics of extra elements are unspecified and ambiguous. Historically, some implementations have used a fourth element to carry a linear referencing measure (sometimes denoted as "M") or a numerical timestamp (...) additional elements MAY be ignored by parsers.”
