adamaps opened a new issue, #1345:
URL: https://github.com/apache/sedona/issues/1345
## Expected behavior
`ShapefileReader.readToGeometryRDD(sedona_context, shp_file)` should use the
`sedona.global.charset` configuration property set in the spark session when
reading shapefiles containing non-ASCII characters.
E.g. A shapefile containing an attribute value `"Ariñiz/Aríñez"` should
appear in a dataframe as `"Ariñiz/Aríñez"`.
## Actual behavior
`ShapefileReader.readToGeometryRDD(sedona_context, shp_file)` is not using
the charset configuration property set in the spark context.
E.g. A shapefile containing an attribute value `"Ariñiz/Aríñez"` appears in
a dataframe as `"Ariñiz/ArÃñez"` instead.
## Steps to reproduce the problem
```python
from pyspark.conf import SparkConf
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession
from sedona.core.formatMapper.shapefileParser import ShapefileReader
from sedona.spark import SedonaContext
from sedona.utils.adapter import Adapter
conf = SparkConf()
conf.set("sedona.global.charset", "utf8")
spark = SparkSession.builder.config(conf=conf).getOrCreate()
sedona = SedonaContext.create(spark)
sedona_context = sedona.sparkContext
shp_file = '[aws s3 path to shapefile]'
shp_rdd = ShapefileReader.readToGeometryRDD(sedona_context, shp_file)
shp_df = Adapter.toDf(shp_rdd, sedona)
```
I can confirm that `("sedona.global.charset", "utf8")` appears in the
configuration settings by using:
```python
print(sedona_context.getConf().getAll())
```
I also tried setting the charset property after creating the sedona context
as follows (although this appears to be an older solution):
```python
sedona_context.setSystemProperty("sedona.global.charset", "utf8")
```
Please confirm how to set this configuration property correctly.
