Geometry有多种格式，例如WKT, GML, KML等格式。OpenLayers提供Geometry格式的转换方法，可以实现不同格式的Geometry的转换。
Geometry格式转换类位于OpenLayers.Format命名空间下。本文以WKT--> GML的转换来说明OpenLayers Geometry格式转换方法的使用。
1. 定义WKT Geometry
var wkt = "POLYGON((6.027164 49.524078,6.088064 49.680508,5.948726 49.772232,5.941587 49.91943,6.03742 50.064381,6.147439 50.130783,6.211109 50.166946,6.312177 50.134426,6.340263 49.998951,6.525142 49.858585,6.734586 49.815399,6.715019 49.685902,6.603117 49.621159,6.636707 49.462303,6.57162 49.490456,6.315996 49.495625,6.02716449.524078))”;
2. 创建WKT Format对象
var wkt_c = new OpenLayers.Format.WKT();
3. 利用wkt_c读入wkt数据，并转换为OpenLayers的Geometry对象
var geometry = new wkt_c.read(wkt);
4. 创建GMK Format对象
var gml_c = new OpenLayers.Format.GML();
5. 利用gml_c对象将geometry写为gml格式
var gml = new gml_c.write(geometry);
