Goals
- Rich support for geojson
- Filtering via jsonpath-like expressions
Use Case
Considerations
- support json-schema
- efficient/compressed storage
- variable attributes/attribute indices
- pushdown predicates
- geoserver/simplefeature integration
- ingest api/services
Design
- add json-path CQL functions in SimpleFeatures to support pushdown predicates
- Leverage the native-api?
- alternative - support json attributes in SimpleFeatures?
- use converters for transforming incoming geojson
- API suggestions -
- rest endpoint that takes geojson and puts it in the db
- native api that takes a string of geojson
- native api that takes a geojson like java object
- endpoint to convert back to geojson? (possibly geoserver json output would be good enough)
Tasks
- support json-path CQL in SimpleFeatures
- TBD
