Lxml's current FAQ includes a method of transforming xml to a dict of dicts, but not JSON. The mismatch between a dict of dicts and JSON occurs when an element has mulitple children with the same tag name. Under JSON conventions, multiple children of the same name are equivalent to an array or tuple. The below python functions attempt to add the repeated tags to list functionality. I'd appreciate suggestions for improvements.

The mapbox updating choropleth example uses a precomputed legend: both the stops and the colors they correspond to are already written into the webpage. In maps that follow Tobler's law that "everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things", some regions will contain features that have small but significant differences from each other that are difficult to see on a pre-computed legend. Here are two solutions: change the style and change the legend to match the displayed data (adapt_style and adapt_legend.js, respectively).

WFS-T 2.0.0 examples

Here I've translated the geoserver Web Feature Service Transactions (WFS-T) 1.0.0 examples into WFS-T 2.0.0 xml. All of these have been verified to work on geoserver 2.11.
