Im gemeinsamen Vorhaben von swisstopo und MeteoSchweiz wurde eine offene Schnittstelle für den Zugang von zehn MeteoSchweiz-Produkten bereitgestellt. Ausgewählte Daten können via STAC-API und OGC API FEATURES für Testzwecke frei während des Testzeitraums bezogen werden. Ziel des Prototyps ist unter anderem, Feedback via Online-Befragung von den Nutzern zu erhalten. Der PoC läuft bis Ende November 2022.

Test the Proof of Concept Opendata MeteoSwiss

In a joint project of swisstopo and MeteoSwiss, an open interface for accessing ten MeteoSwiss products was provided. Selected data can be freely obtained via STAC-API and OGC API FEATURES for test purposes during the test period. The goal of the prototype is, among other things, to obtain feedback from users via online survey. The PoC will run until the end of November 2022.

We added a challenge to go through this API together at this year’s DINAcon:

Start with the online tutorial (GitHub) and run some example queries in your web browser. Familiarize yourself with the context of this dataset, and log into GitHub so you can ask questions & share feedback.

Learn to use APIs implementing the STAC API Specification with the STAC browser, where you can already connect to geodata repositories around the world. Use the QGIS plugin if you would like to explore the data in an open source desktop GIS tool. See also the QGIS-OAFeat interface in the tutorial.

Use a command line API testing tool like curl, or an advanced GUI like postman to work with servcie endpoints more precisely. At this point you should be ready to try connecting to the API with libraries in your choice of programming language. Your thoughts about the security, performance and reliability of this solution are particularly welcome. Please raise an issue or share your tips in our community chat.
