Microsoft.Data namespace missing dbGeometry

I am developing an application in WPF. Target framework: .Net Core 3.1, x86 platform.
I have installed the Nuget Package: Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.
My db is SqlExpress.

I have a table with a sys.geometry type, (stores a coordinate pair, global coordinates).

I cannot find a reference to the equivalent .Net data type in Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.

I can find a reference in System.Data.Entity.Spatial namespace but this namespace is not present in .NetCore 3.1

Am I missing a package?

    Those types are not available for .NET Core, you can use dotMorten.Microsoft.SqlServer.Types while Microsoft gets them implemented.
