Index positional accuracy and add to obs API #1207
Comments
I honestly don't know what That said, I do think it's important that we index |
I meant by this issue that we include accuracy (and we really should change this to precision everywhere to be more ... precise) in the obs search api http://api.inaturalist.org/v1/docs/#!/Observations/get_observations I don't think this has been implemented yet right? |
@loarie can you specify more of the requirements here. As said above, we have the public_positional_accuracy, and the private_positional_accuracy. So when you say Do you want two parameters, one for each field? Or a single parameter that does something clever, like use the private_ field for your own obs and the public_ field for other obs (which we might want to extend further to obs from projects you manage that release rights, etc...). Do you want to distinguish between obs w/ a precision of 0 vs obs w/o a precision (like do we need a |
@pleary - I don't think |
I honestly have no idea what So what I'll need to know is, given we are indexing these two fields, what new parameter(s) would you like the API to support, and how should those filters work? |
for my (ie the atlas) purposes, I'd just want access to positional_accuracy. Would it be possible to have a filter like |
revisiting this - we now have For atlas purposes, we'll need @pleary - any objection to adding |
There are use cases where people want to be able to filter by positional accuracy, but people don't seem to want to mix positional accuracy with data quality #1206.
So this issue proposes indexing positional accuracy and adding it to the obs API.
@kueda - can you explain how private_positional_accuracy and positional_accuracy work as relating to this use case? Which one should be indexed?
