Station info in observations coveragejson document #28

Open havardf opened 1 month ago

havardf commented 1 month ago

Querying an observations collection will result in data from one or more observation stations. Currently, you only get geographical info, but no name /wigos id etc about the station from which the data was generated.

This will force the user to very often query /locations and have logic to connect the results themselves. Having a small amount of metadata about stations in the coveragejson document will probably simplify the usage of the service for a broad class of use-cases.

E.g

"eumetnet:station_info": {
    "eumetnet:wigos_id": "[..]",
    "eumetnet:wigos_url": "[..]"
}

@lukas-phaf What kind of data would be sufficient to have in the response? And should it be optional or mandatory? I guess we should keep it minimal and refer to either more info in /locations or Oscar?

In E-SOH we have only the following at the top-level of the Coverage object: "rodeo:wigosId": "0-20000-0-06377" The station name might also be useful to human users.
