OGC API- Maps

The OGC API - Maps Standard helps you construct an API that can serve spatially referenced electronic maps. More information is available on the OGC API- Maps page here

Options are available inside a GeognoSIS instance to :

  • Grant privileges
  • View the map being used by the service
  • Access API documentation

Click Edit on an instance and select Web Services > OGC > OGC API- Maps.

Options

To define API privileges, click Options > Privileges. Because Maps are image-based, you can only read the content. Select desired users/groups from the drop-down menu.

Click Documentation to view API documentation.

To try out the various API methods, click the first link HTML on the documentation page. This will direct you to a page where you can try API methods that are common to all three OGC API types: Features, Maps and Tiles.
