GeoSeer is an incredibly useful spatial information search engine which allows you lot to uncovering free, open-source geographical datasets from to a greater extent than or less the world. Using GeoSeer you lot tin search for spatial information yesteryear place together with yesteryear subject. GeoSeer volition hence demo you lot all the spatial datasets it finds, which are available equally OGC web-services. Those are datasets which are available as:
- WMS (Web Map Service) - basically, a map
- WFS (Web Feature Service) - raw vector data
- WCS (Web Coverage Service) - raw raster data
- WMTS (Web Map Tile Service) - a pre-rendered basemap
H5N1 cracking means to search GeoSeer is to role the GeoSeer API Demo. This demo map, created to showcase the GeoSeer API, allows you lot to zoom inward on whatsoever place inward the the world together with search for the available spatial datasets for that location.
What I detail similar nearly the GeoSeer API Demo is that you lot tin review all the returned search results yesteryear overlaying whatsoever of the datasets on operate yesteryear of the demo interactive map. For instance the screenshot higher upwards shows 2 of the spatial datasets which tin hold upwards flora if you lot search inward New York. The datasets shown are a geo-rectified vintage map of New York together with Microsoft edifice footprints from 2018.
Using the information provided amongst the results it is slow to add together a discovered dataset to your interactive mapping platform of choice. For instance - this Leaflet.js map shows the Microsoft edifice footprint dataset above.
