Casting geometry encodings as strings?

[mdeagen]

Does SDD infer datatype, and is there a way to cast to a preferred datatype?

Example: A string of 1's and 0's (length 100) denoting a binary pixelated geometry is being interpreted as a large number.

We should be able to add '^^xsd:string' to the Format column of Geometry. It's weird that it's auto-parsing as a floating point though.
