Create API call to access the data in JSON/GeoJSON/XML format by passing in things like bounding box, start and end time, Jam fields, Alert types, etc.

• Allows easy access to chunks of data from the DB
• Proof of concept limited for use of Interactive Map
• Good to get developer buy-in, service integrations

Technical: HTTP endpoint would return GeoJSON file from DB. Parameters include start date/time, end date/time, lat/lon bounding box, Waze categories (Jam types, Alert types, Irregularities).

Examples:

List of reports
https://endpoint.com/api/waze/reports?startdate=2018-02-17&enddate=2018-02-19&starttime=1600&endtime=1800&minlat=37.9971&maxlat=38.38051&minlon=-85.948441&maxlon=-85.4051&jams=2,3,4&alerttypes=ACCIDENT_MAJOR,JAM_STAND_STILL_TRAFFIC,HAZARD_ON_SHOULDER_CAR_STOPPED&irregularity=0&roadtypes=3,5,8,9&streetname=&delay=&speed=&length=&format=json

Detailed data on a single report
https://endpoint.com/api/waze/reportdetail?reportid=FB6E701F-E8A6-3667-BC5A-434A593E5C76&format=json

Geodata (line or point) on a single report

We've started work defining how to create the API endpoints and some of the details.

Going with Node.js for the Lambda functions connected to the API Gateway.

Here is the Google Doc with details. If you'd like edit access, let me know. Or you can leave comments in the doc, or comments here.
