Principle 17 - Use Well-Known URL Templates and Access Paths

[cmheazel]

An additional principle from the Testbed 12 Rest User Guide

[cmheazel]

This principle calls for uniformity on how OGC API URLs are structured. Starting with a URL template, what are the rules for:

• Protocol (http, https, file, etc.)
• Authority (DNS name)
• Path (identifies the resource type)
• Query (selects the resources)

Some of the Principles deal with parts of the issue, but none address the elephant as a whole.
