Data catalog service introduction

Feedback


It provides a convenient data organization and management way. Through the data catalog service, the data hosted by SuperMap iServer and user self-management data can be managed centrally. The powerful data management capabilities to support the management of multiple iServer DataStore, supports the management of thousands of relational datasets and spatio-temporal datasets. The data catalog service provides for the common users with access to the various types of data, including relational data, binary data, large data file sharing data, tile data and spatio-temporal large data. Also, it supports creating/deleting/uploading/downloading dataset in the iServer hosted database.

Relational data

The relational data managed in the data catalog service relies on iServer DataStore management capabilities to store the datasets in its built-in postgresql database. The functions on the relational data include: view datasets, create / delete datasets, upload data, download data and publish as GIS services.

View datasets

In the dataset list of the relationship/datasets resource, you can view all relational datasets hosted in iServer DataStore and all the relational datasets in the registered spatial database. These dataset sources include: 1 the existing datasets in iServer DataStore; 2 the datasets created by the data catalog service; 3 the imported datasets; 4 the existing datasets in the registered spatial database.

Create/delete dataset

It supports creating/deleting datasets in the relationship/datasets resource.

Upload data

Under the relationship / dataimport resource, you can upload datasets. The supported file types include: UDB datasource, CSV file, workspace, Excel file, GeoJson file, shape file and the udb datasource, shape file and workspace need to be compressed to * .zip format.

Download data

Under relationship/datas resource, you can download datasets. The supported file types include: udb and Shape files. For the workspace-type data ,the supported download format also supports workspace type; For the Shape-type data, the download format only supports Shape type.

Publish as a GIS service

The "Quick Publish Service" function in the iServer management module supports publishing relational data in the data category service as a map service, data services, and spatial analysis services.

Input the data address of the data catalog service, format as: :http://{ip}:{port}/iserver/services/datacatalog/rest/datacatalog/relationship/datas/{dataID}

Binary data

The binary data managed in the data catalog service relies on the management capabilities of the iServer DataStore, which stores the data files in the associated MongoDB database in binary stream, where the version of the MongoDB database needs to be 3.2 above. The functions for binary data include: viewing the data list, uploading / downloading / deleting data.

View the data ID list

Under the binary/datas resource, you can view the binary data ID that was uploaded successfully in the data catalog service. You can view the details of the data by clicking the link for the data ID.

Upload/download/delete data

In the binary / dataimport resource, support uploading and storing various types of data files to the MongoDB database associated with iServer DataStore in the form of binary stream.

Sharing file

The datasets managed in the sharefile resource of the data catalog service is the large data file sharing that the iServer administrator registers through the "cluster" "data registration" function. The data registration function can register the CSV file and the UDB datasource in the HDFS directory and the shared directory as their corresponding dataset.

You can view the dataset details by clicking on the dataset name listed on the sharefile resource page.

Cache data

The cache data managed in the data catalog service relies on the management capabilities of the iServer DataStore, which stores the data files in the associated MongoDB database in cache format, where the version of the MongoDB database needs to be 3.2 above. The functions for cache data include: viewing the data list, uploading / downloading / deleting data.

View the data ID list

Under the tiles/datas resource, you can view the cache data ID that was imported successfully in the data catalog service. You can view the details of the data by clicking the link for the data ID.

Import cache

In the tiles / dataimport resources, supports importing and storing the tiles in form of SMTiles and GeoPackage into the MongoDB database associated with iServer DataStore.

When the data is uploaded successfully, it returns a unique dataID that is used to represent the uploaded file. A detailed description of the packet can be obtained by accessing the tiles/datas/{dataID} resource.

Support for publishing as a map service

The "Quick publish Service" function in the iServer management module supports publishing the cache data in the data catalog service as a map service.

Input the data address of the data catalog service, format as: :http://{ip}:{port}/iserver/services/datacatalog/rest/datacatalog/tiles/datas/{dataID}

Spatio-temporal data

View datasets

In the dataset list of the spatiotemporal/datasets resource, you can view all spatio-temporal datasets hosted in iServer DataStore.
