Testcase: Trees of Berlin

[tordans]

Hi, I would like to test the feature with Trees in Berlin.
However, http://mapmeld.com/iD/ does not seem to load and https://api06.dev.openstreetmap.org (from openstreetmap#4633 (comment)) does not let me log in (it probably has a whitelist for accounts?).

What would be the best way to test the feature?

This are the data:

• https://trees.codefor.de/ shows trees in Berlin
• This is based on the "lovely" official system
• An example API response would be https://trees.codefor.de/api/trees/?tile=15/17602/10749

Could I throw this into the service as it is?

Hi, what happens when you try to load http://mapmeld.com/iD/ ? Is it possibly an issue where your browser is wanting to redirect to HTTPS? I was able to load it on my computer just now, and I hadn't tried accessing it before from this machine

hi @tordans!

api06.dev.openstreetmap.org (from openstreetmap#4633 (comment)) does not let me log in

you'll need to create a separate dedicated dev account to login to dev.openstreetmap.org

An example API response would be https://trees.codefor.de/api/trees/?tile=15/17602/10749
Could I throw this into the service as it is?

right now our branch only knows how to fetch GeoJSON from web services that follow the Geoservices spec.

@mapmeld it might be, that my Browser is German and the de.json is missing? Can I force-load the english editor (I could not find an option in Chrome or Firefox).

Thanks @jgravois with a fresh account from dev.… I can log in. However, I don't see any edit-notes/-pathes but get an Error Unchecked runtime.lastError: The message port closed before a response was received. in the console. Also random server 500-errors in between.

Update: @jgravois IMO https://trees.codefor.de/api/trees/?tile=15/17602/10749 follows the GeoJSON standard already, but it wraps the GeoJSON result in features array. So this additional wrapper needs to be gone in order for it to work, correct? (The top level object of the API result needs to be in the GeoJSON-format.)
Update2: So https://trees.codefor.de/api/trees/1 should work already?

IMO trees.codefor.de/api/trees/?tile=15/17602/10749 follows the GeoJSON standard already

So trees.codefor.de/api/trees/1 should work already?

Our branch currently constructs request parameters to fetch GeoJSON in a very particular way (acccording to a specification popularized by Esri called Geoservices).

In the longer term plan we'd certainly be interested in refactoring the code so that you could point it at any old GeoJSON (as long as its appropriately licensed 😉) but right now your own service would need to listen and respond to a request like this:

${your url}/query?
where=1=1&
returnCountOnly=false&
geometry={"xmin":-77.025008,"ymin":38.900257,"xmax":-77.006936,"ymax":38.912242,"spatialReference":{"wkid":4326}}&
geometryType=esriGeometryEnvelope&
spatialRel=esriSpatialRelIntersects&
inSR=4326&
f=geojson

@tordans I've fixed the locales issue

[tordans]

@mapmeld yes, it is fixed, thanks.

Now I need to figure out how to make the request-URL match the specs :).
