Convert arcs to WKT linestrings
Arguments
- x
A wkpool (ideally after merge_coincident)
- quotient
Walk the quotient graph: duplicated shared boundaries collapse to a single undirected edge (first occurrence keeps its direction), so a boundary shared by two features becomes ONE arc rather than one per feature, and its interior vertices are degree-2 pass-throughs. This is the TopoJSON-style arc decomposition of a polygon layer. Default FALSE walks every segment.

Passed to
wk::as_wkb()
Details
Each arc (maximal segment sequence between nodes) becomes a linestring.
Geometry is assembled natively via wk::wk_linestring() (WKB first,
WKT derived from it): coordinates are emitted at full double
precision, z is carried when the pool has it, and the pool's crs and
geodesic flag are attached to the output.
Examples
x <- wk::as_wkb(c(
"POLYGON ((0 0, 1 0, 1 1, 0 1, 0 0))",
"POLYGON ((1 0, 2 0, 2 1, 1 1, 1 0))"
))
pool <- establish_topology(x)
merged <- merge_coincident(pool)
