URI

Supported methods

GET, HEAD

Parent resource

geometry

Child resources

geometryInterpolationDensity, geometryInterpolationIDW, geometryInterpolationRBF, geometryInterpolationKriging

Introduction

The root resource for performing interpolation analysis through Geometry. Interpolation analyses predicts values for surrounding areas of limited sample data to get the the overall distribution of the data in the research area, which makes the sample discrete points not only reflects the values of their own positions, but the numeric distribution of an entire region.
Currently, 4 interpolation methods are supported: Density, IDW, Kriging, RBF.  

Supported Methods:

Supported output formats: rjson, json, jsonp, html, xml.

Resource hierarchy

HTTP request methods

Implement the HTTP request on the following URI, where supermapiserver is the server name, with rjson being the output format.

http://supermapiserver:8090/iserver/services/spatialanalyst-sample/restjsr/spatialanalyst/geometry/interpolation.rjson

GET request

Gets the supported interpolation methods for interpolation with coordinates of discrete points

Response structure

Returns interpolation method child resources.

Field Type Description
name string Name of the child resource corresponding to the interpolation algorithm.
path string URI of the child resource corresponding to the interpolation algorithm.
resourceConfigID string The ID of the resource configuration file.
resourceType ResourceType The resource type.
supportedMediaTypes string[] The supported media types.

Response example

The rjson format result returned through implementing the GET request on http://localhost:8090/iserver/services/spatialanalyst-sample/restjsr/spatialanalyst/geometry/interpolation.rjson would be as follows:

[

  {

    "name": "geometryInterpolationIDW",

    "resourceConfigID": null,

    "resourceType": null,

    "supportedMediaTypes": null

  }

]

HEAD request

Asks for the response identical to the one that would correspond to a GET request, but without the response body. This is useful for retrieving meta-information written in response headers, without having to transport the entire content. The meta-information includes the media-type, content-encoding, transfer-encoding, content-length, etc.

HEAD request can be used to check if the geometryInterpolation resource exists, or if the geometryInterpolation resource can be accessed by clients. It can also determine if the geometryInterpolation resource supports an output format <format> if performed on a URI with .<format> included.
