This GitHub repository contains the OGC API - Moving Features for providing query and access to geospatial data and services, especially movement data.
The OGC API - Moving Features standard is part of the OGC API suite of standards. OGC API standards define modular API building blocks to spatially enable Web APIs in a consistent way. OpenAPI is used to define the reusable API building blocks.
GET /collections
Retrieve catalogs of moving features collection.
POST /collections
Register metadata about a collection of moving features.
GET /collections/{collectionId}
Access metadata about the collection with id collectionId.
DELETE /collections/{collectionId}
The collection catalog with id collectionId and including metadata and moving features SHOULD be deleted.
PUT /collections/{collectionId}
Replace metadata about the collection with id collectionId.
GET /collections/{collectionId}/items
Retrieve moving feature collection to access the static information of the moving feature by simple filtering and a limit.
POST /collections/{collectionId}/items
Insert a set of moving features or a moving feature into a collection with id collectionId.
GET /collections/{collectionId}/items/{mFeatureId}
Access the static data of the moving feature with id mFeatureId.
The static data of a moving feature is not included temporal geometries and temporal properties.
DELETE /collections/{collectionId}/items/{mFeatureId}
Delete a single moving feature with id mFeatureId and including temporal geometries and properties.
GET /collections/{collectionId}/items/{mFeatureId}/tgeometries
Retrieve the movement data of the single moving feature with id mFeatureId.
POST /collections/{collectionId}/items/{mFeatureId}/tgeometries
Add movement data into the moving feature with id mFeatureId.
DELETE /collections/{collectionId}/items/{mFeatureId}/tgeometries/{tGeometryId}
Delete a singe temporal geometry with id tGeometryId.
GET /collections/{collectionId}/items/{mFeatureId}/tproperties
Retrieve the static information of the temporal property data that included a single moving feature with id mFeatureId.
The static data of a temporal property is not included temporal values (property values).
POST /collections/{collectionId}/items/{mFeatureId}/tproperties
Add temporal property data into a moving feature with id mFeatureId.
GET /collections/{collectionId}/items/{mFeatureId}/tproperties/{tPropertyName}
Retrieve a temporal values with a specified name tPropertyName of temporal property.
POST /collections/{collectionId}/items/{mFeatureId}/tproperties/{tPropertyName}
Add more temporal values data into a temporal property with id tPropertyName.
