upload button for area of interest #292

Closed Pratichhya closed 1 year ago

Pratichhya commented 1 year ago

Since in most of the scenario user wishes to directly upload their area of interest as shapefile or GeoJson or Kml/kmz, is it possible to add an upload button to the map view of the openeo web editor? (that will be in addition to already available draw polygon, line etc.)

As long as the backend implementation supports uploading files in general and the file formats as input file formats you can upload them in the Web Editor. Then they reside on the backend and could be used in processes. I assume you are using openEO Platform? In this case, this needs to be adressed with openEO Platform directly as it doesn't support file uploads yet, e.g. via a forum post.

In the Web Editor itself it will be hard to read shapefiles as it would need to be read directly in the browser, but shapefiles are multiple files so hard to manage. You can already copy&paste GeoJSON into the Code tab of the GeoJSON editor, but I'll also add a possibility to drag&drop GeoJSON files directly. For KML I'll need to check whether there's a good library for reading it.

I've implemented drag&drop for KML and GeoJSON, so it should be easier now to use those files for the AOI. Please see the demo below for details:
