Path syntax #3
Comments
This does not define a path, unfortunately:
|
I think trying to define a path scheme is the wrong place to start. I would be happier with the approach of asking what are meaningful queries from a user wanting to use coverage data. E.g. |
@chris-little I agree in principle. Just remember that this first release is a simple core. What are the capabilities which will be needed by every OAPI-Coverages implementation? That alone should keep us busy for a couple months. |
@chris-little I completely agree, in fact I might go further and suggest we already have the syntax needed from the name=value pairs. We need to look at common requests, and I think most of what you have listed should be common, What data is available? I would add: What formats I like the Will the data swamp my device/connection, but perhaps this is a secondary operation/service, based on some selection of format/extent/crs/protocol... |
interesting discussion! All I find so far is not constrained to coverages, but
is a valid question for any kind of data addressed by OGC so far. So this might
constitute good input for OpenAPI Common.

should be common,
certainly
What data is available?
What other services are associated with this data (visualisation, subsetting,
re-projection, processing,...)?
Are there any metadata?
What are the constraints on my use of this data?
I would add:
What formats
What extents
What CRS (I'm not sure we should be constrained by WFS 3.0 decision to only
support WGS84 lon/lat in core)
What operations (which may be the same as services?)
What protocols/methods
I like the
Will the data swamp my device/connection, but perhaps this is a secondary
operation/service, based on some selection of format/extent/crs/protocol...

From Swath Coverage Engineering Report
In the context of the WCS REST API design experiment, the resources are identified by paths. Each path uniquely identifies a resource. For example, the root path / identifies the entry point which returns a document containing links to other resources - i.e. specifications identified by "/api", conformance declaration (identified by "/conformance"), and list of coverages (identified by "/coverages"). The coverage description of each coverage is identified as "/coverages/{coverageId}" while the actual data of a coverage is identified as "/coverages/{coverageId}/rangeSet". The paths are unique identifiers for different resources.
