DAPA Comparison

Richard Conway edited this page Apr 12, 2021 · 1 revision

The following is a mapping between the different resource names in the three DAPA endpoints:

Resource EOX (gridded data) ii (scattered data) Terradue (gridded data) EDR API
Fetch list of fields/variables /dapa/fields /dapa/variables /variables n/a (only included in the API definition?)
Retrieve XYT data in an area and for a time interval /dapa/cube /dapa/area
/dapa/resample-to-grid
/processes/area:retrieve /area
Retrieve XY data in an area and for a time instant /dapa/area /dapa/area
/dapa/resample-to-grid
/processes/area:retrieve /area
Retrieve XY data in an area and aggregated over a time interval /dapa/area /dapa/area:aggregate-time
/dapa/resample-to-grid:aggregate-time
/processes/area:aggregate-time n/a (aggregations not supported?)
Retrieve T data for a time interval, aggregated over an area /dapa/timeseries/area /dapa/area:aggregate-space /processes/area:aggregate-space n/a (aggregations not supported?)
Retrieve T data for a time interval and for a position /dapa/timeseries/position /dapa/position n/a /position
Retrieve a value aggregated over a time interval and over an area /dapa/value/area /dapa/area:aggregate-space-time
/dapa/resample-to-grid:aggregate-space-time
/processes/area:aggregate-space-time n/a (aggregations not supported?)
Retrieve a value aggregated over a time interval and for a position /dapa/value/position /dapa/position:aggregate-time n/a n/a (aggregations not supported?)

And the query parameter names:

Parameter EOX ii Terradue EDR API
WKT geometry (MULTI)POINT point coord n/a coords
WKT geometry (MULTI)POLYGON geom coord n/a coords
Bounding Box (west,south,east,north) bbox bbox bbox coords with a bbox rectangle
ISO 8601 time instant or interval time datetime datetime datetime
List of parameters/fields/variables to select fields variables variable parametername
Statistical functions to execute (e.g. min, max, std-dev, count) aggregate functions function n/a (aggregations not supported?)

Functions Supported:

Parameter EOX ii Terradue EDR API
minimum min min min
maximum max max max
average linear average mean mean
standard deviation std-dev std-dev
count count count

The information was extracted from the following sources: EOX, ii, Terradue, EDR API RFC Draft.
