Geospatial Explorer
Overview
The Geospatial Explorer will provide an interactive web front end that can be used for the display and visualisation of geospatial and tabular data ingested from web services following common interoperable protocols (e.g. OGC Standards, STAC, etc.). The Explorer will be data-driven, allowing administrators to define the configuration of the explorer in JSON (i.e. the data layers and functional operations possible for each layer). This configuration will determine how the user interface is rendered at run time and the resulting data and functionality that is exposed to the end user.
Typical functions will include the ability to visualise EO data, derived products and associated vector layers (e.g. administrative boundaries), with control over layer ordering, transparency, product comparisons (split screen) and support for features such as cursor inspection, queries, distance measurements and visualisation of tabular data via integrated charts and graphs. The UI will also provide access to metadata records associated with the data that is rendered in the Explorer.
Additional information will be shared on this page as the project progresses.
