geosoftware2_ct

This is the Geosoftware project written by @bennidietz, @ipleis, @NiklasAsselmann, @carojw and @KathHv.

To install the CLI-Tools the required packages to install are pip and python: Pip3 can be installed via the command line: sudo apt-get install python3-pip. Python can be installed via command line with these instructions

HOW TO MAKE THE CLI-TOOLS WORK:

1. Write the following Code Block in your terminal:

git clone https://github.com/KathHv/geosoftware2_ct.git

cd geosoftware2_ct

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

cd CLITools

2. Install GDAL: https://www.gdal.org
   • Download: http at download.osgeo.org
   • Choose CURRENT/
   • Choose gdal-2.4.0.tar.gz
   • Open Terminal and write
   • ./connect
   • make (may take a while)
   • sudo make install
3. python3 extract_metadata.py -h to get all the command that are supported in our CLI-tool

Make the CLI-tools work with one command:

(assuming GDAL is installed):

All CLITool impelementations can be found in the subfolders of the folder CLITools.

extract Metadata:

The extract_metadata.py-file is just for extracting the bounding box, vector representation and temporal extent. The results will be printed.

cd CLITools/metadataExtraction && python3 extract_metadata.py -h

insert Entry:

The insert_Entry.py-file inserts a given xml file with metadata to a given server. The entry will then be updated by extracting metadata form the given source file of the metadata.

cd CLITools/transaction && python3 insertEntry.py -h

update Entry:

The update_Entry.py-file updates an Entry, identified by its id, with bounding box, vector representation and temporal extent, if available.

cd CLITools/transaction && python3 updateEntry.py -h

Tests:

Tests can be found in the folder Tests and can be executed with pytest.
