geo:box(
   $box as node()
) as cts:box

Summary

Create a cts:box value from a node representing a box in one of the supported markup vocabularies, such as KML, GML, or GeoJSON.

Parameters

Usage Notes

If you know the geospatial data format (GML, KML, etc.), it is more efficient to use the equivalent format-specific function.
