add access to layers (polygons) #67

Closed mkoo closed 2 years ago

mkoo commented 9 years ago

New functions to access layers API endpoint (https://dev-ecoengine.berkeley.edu/api/layers/)

These typically started as shapefiles before being tiled by Ecoengine. Currently being used to generate simple bounding box searches in frontend.

Special layers to pay attention to are the Jepson ecoregions, UC NRS holdings, VTM quadrants, which are all unique to Ecoengine and would be used in tutorial examples or in the App Gallery.
