Description

Hi,
Looks like I am not able to convert 3D polygon and LineString to shp file.

const coordinates = [
[
[0, 0, 0], // Vertex 1: x, y, z
[0, 10, 0], // Vertex 2: x, y, z
[10, 10, 0],// Vertex 3: x, y, z
[10, 0, 0], // Vertex 4: x, y, z
[0, 0, 0] // Closing vertex to complete the polygon
]
];

After conversion, I am getting only X and Y values, not Z values. Is this supported?

Research direction

No source file, entry point, or test is named in the issue. Start by reproducing the polygon and LineString conversion with the supplied coordinates, then inspect the shapefile-writing path to determine whether Z values are supported; done means a defined outcome for preserving or explicitly rejecting the third coordinate.
