Example URLs (NCPP Tech Demo 2012-10-29)
These URLs are not "live" in the sense that they rely on a local server and copy of OCGIS. If you happen to a have a development server accessible at the proper IP address and with OCGIS installed, then they will work. These are URL formats for OCGIS v0.01a.
Inspect a dataset returning a plain text description of the dimensions identified by OCGIS and a dump of its attributes, variables, and dimensions.
A "snippet" is small chunk of the dataset useful for quickly examining spatial relationships and ensuring the data is readable and returned in the expected format.
(This is equivalent to "wget -O snippet_tasmin.zip http://127.0.0.1:8000/snippet/uid/5/variable/tasmin".)
Some common shapefile-based geometric datasets are accessible by OCGIS. Users will be able to upload their own datasets.
These are snippets bounded by a selection geometry.
(5) http://127.0.0.1:8000/snippet/uid/5/variable/tasmin?prefix=snippet_co_watersheds&space=co_watersheds
The common form of a typical subset URL with a bounding box (min_x|min_y|max_x|max_y):
Same request but replacing the selection box with a CO watershed geometries (HUC8):
Changing the output format to "meta" results in a plain text description of the operations OCGIS will perform. No data is touched. This is a calculation URL. By using "meta", the operations are certain to at least be interpreted by OCGIS.
URL shorteners are okay.

This URL will perform computations and return data in a keyed format. Keyed formats maximize data reduction by generating files containing unique values. No data is unnecessarily replicated.
A URL for a multivariate heat index calculation.
