Features

• Allows connection to an SOS service using OWSLib.

• Explore and summarize service capabilities, sensor metadata, offerings, observed properties, available phenomena and features of interest.

• Query requests to an SOS service for Get Data Availability.

• Query requests to an SOS service for getting observation data.

• Query requests to an SOS service for getting observation site data.

Usage

EXAMPLES OF THE PACKAGE CAN BE SEEN:: https://github.com/52North/sos4py/tree/master/examples

Connecting to an SOS service:

Description

Base class of a connection to a Sensor Observation Service. The result is class object SensorObservationService_2_0_0(object) of the OWSLib (<https://github.com/geopython/OWSLib/blob/master/owslib/swe/observation/sos200.py>)

Usage

def connection_sos(url, xml=None, username=None, password=None,):

Parameters

xmlstr

Xml file path.

usernamestr

Username to access the SOS service.

passwordstr

User password to access the SOS service.

Example

from sos4py.main import connection_sos

service = sos4py('http://sensorweb.demo.52north.org/52n-sos-webapp/sos/kvp')

Get capabilities functions (summaries):

Description

Construction class sos_2_0_0. Implements the the return of the function connection_sos() as input. The methods of the class can be used for metadata retrieval of sensors, and observation data queries.

Usage

class sos_2_0_0(self, url, version, xml=None, username=None, password=None):

Methods

sosServiceIdentification() The identification section of a SOS v2.0 capabilities document. This function queries the identification metadata available and returns the data as a pandas Series dataframe.

sosProvider() The provider section of an SOS v2.0 capabilities document. This function queries the provider metadata available and returns the data as a pandas Series dataframe.

sosOperationsMetadata() Elements in an OperationsMetadata object.This function queries the operations available of a SOS v2.0 capabilities document and returns the data as a pandas Series dataframe.

sosOfferings() Explore offerings section of an SOS v2.0 capabilities document. This function queries the offerings and returns the data as a pandas Series dataframe.

sosPhenomena() Queries a SOS v2.0 for all its phenomena. Returns a list of the phenomena ids.

sosFeaturesOfInterest() Queries a SOS v2.0 for all its features of interest. Returns a list of the feature of interest ids.

Examples

from sos4py.main import connection_sos

service = connection_sos('http://sensorweb.demo.52north.org/52n-sos-webapp/sos/kvp')

service.sosServiceIdentification()

service.sosProvider()

service.sosOperationsMetadata()

service.sosOfferings()

service.phenomena()

Get Data Availability function:

Description

Base class of a connection to a Sensor Observation Service. The result is class object SensorObservationService_2_0_0(object) of the OWSLib (<https://github.com/geopython/OWSLib/blob/master/owslib/swe/observation/sos200.py>)

Usage

def get_data_availability(object, procedures=None, observedProperties=None, featuresOfInterest=None, offerings=None, method=None, **kwargs)

Parameters

objectstr

Xml file path.

procedureslist of str

Query the data based on the availability of the indicated procedures.

observedProperties: list of str

Query the data based on the availability of the indicated observed properties.

featuresOfInterestlist of str

Query the data based on the availability of the indicated features of interest.

offeringslist of str

Query the data based on the availability of the indicated offerings.

methodstr

‘Get’ or ‘Post’ request parameter.

Examples

service.get_data_availability()

service.get_data_availability(procedures=['http://www.52north.org/test/procedure/6'], featuresOfInterest=['http://www.52north.org/test/featureOfInterest/6'])

Get sites function:

Description

Method to retrieve sites from an SOS. The result is a GeoDataFrame.

Usage

def get_sites(self, include_phenomena=False)

Parameters

include_phenomenaboolean, optional

Whether or not flags for the existance of phenomenona (e.g. water temperature) should be included (default is False)

Examples

service.get_sites()

service.get_sites(include_phenomena = True)

Get data function:

Description

Method to get observation data from an SOS. The result is a DataFrame.

Usage

def get_data(self, sites=None, phenomena=None, procedures=None, begin=None, end=None)

Parameters

sitesnon-empty list of str, optional

observation sites/sensor locations

phenomenanon-empty list of str, optional

phenomena, e.g. water temperature

proceduresnon-empty list of str, optional

measurement procedures of the observation, e.g. measurements in 2 m water depth

beginstr, optional if end is not provided

begin of time period in the form ‘YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ’, e.g. ‘2020-01-01T10:00:00Z’

endstr, optional if begin is not provided

end of time period in the form ‘YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ’, e.g. ‘2020-01-02T10:00:00Z’

It is recommended to provide at least one of sites, phenomena or procedures. Otherwise the request may take very long.

Examples

service.get_data()

service.get_data(sites=['Sensor location 1'],phenomena=['water temperature','salinity'])
