geoconnex reference features client

[dblodgett-usgs]

Need a basic client for geoconnex reference features.

Something like:

#' discover geoconnex reference feature layers
#' @return data.frame containing layers available and fields that are available to query.
discover_geoconnex_reference <- function() {}

#' get geoconnex reference feature layers
#' @return sf data.frame contianing requested reference features
get_geoconnex_reference <- function(AOI = NULL, ids = NULL, type = NULL, t_srs = NULL, buffer = 0.5) {
}

backlog:

maybe allow fuzzy matching based on name, where name is whatever the json-ld context has mapped to schema:name.

Something I came across... it seems that the bbox filter is comparing feature bboxes rather than actual feature intersection?

When I request mainstems in a bbox for the area in the upper right here, I get way more rivers than I would expect.

This would appear to be a pygeoapi issue, possibly at the top level of bbox, possibly with just the postgis provider, depending on what FGDC is backing its collections with.
