Abstract
GRASS GIS doesn’t have any module to work with Sensor Observation Service (SOS). SOS is an Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) standard and it is useful to implement modules to work with this standard into GRASS.
Goal
Intended modules would enable the user to create a vector with or without the observation values, create a raster for each queried day and create a space time vector or raster dataset. One module would also allow the user to convert a space time vector dataset into a raster dataset. The user should be also allowed to get the capabilities to get info about sensors from these modules and filter the results.
Intended modules would also use OWSLib to work with the server and data. There are a few things to improve in OWSLib, so this should be the first part of my GSoC project. I would also like to use pyGrass (a python library allowing users to access the low-level GRASS API) to create new modules.
Timeline
