Answer 1

Answer

1. You need to convert the geometry object you have to well known text. You'll find information on how to do that in the vividsolutions API documentation.

   geoobject.toText();
   

2. Insert / Update the data using the mysql GeomFromText method.

   INSERT INTO geom VALUES (GeomFromText(@g));
