Earth Observation API

eoAPI combines several state-of-the-art projects to create a full Earth Observation API. Each service can be used and deployed independently, but eoAPI creates the interconnections between each service:

• pgSTAC database https://github.com/stac-utils/pgstac

• STAC API built on top of https://github.com/stac-utils/stac-fastapi

• STAC Items And Mosaic Raster Tiles API built on top of https://github.com/stac-utils/titiler-pgstac

• OGC Features and Vector Tiles API built on top of https://github.com/developmentseed/tipg

• A STAC Catalog browsing UI based on the radiant earth browser : https://github.com/radiantearth/stac-browser

🌍 eoAPI: An Open-Source Community Project

eoAPI is proudly open-source and driven by a dedicated community of contributors. We believe in the power of open collaboration and welcome anyone to contribute, discuss, and grow this tool. Join the conversations on GitHub Discussions and make a difference in the Earth Observation realm.

Getting started

The easiest way to start exploring the different eoAPI services is with Docker. Clone this repository and start the multi-container Docker applications using Compose:

git clone https://github.com/developmentseed/eoAPI.git
cd eoAPI
docker compose up

Once the applications are up, you'll need to add STAC Collections and Items to the PgSTAC database. If you don't have, you can use the follow the MAXAR open data demo (or get inspired by the other demos).

Then you can start exploring your dataset with:

• the STAC Metadata service http://localhost:8081
• the Raster service http://localhost:8082
• the browser UI http://localhost:8085

If you've added a vector dataset to the public schema in the Postgres database, they will be available through the Vector service at http://localhost:8083.

Deployment with standard runtimes

This repository has current runtimes that are consistently updated with new functionality.

Local deployment

The services can be deployed altogether locally with docker compose up.

Alternatively, you may install the libraries and launch the applications manually :

python -m pip install --upgrade virtualenv
virtualenv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

export DATABASE_URL=postgresql://username:[email protected]:5439/postgis  # Connect to the database of your choice

python -m pip install uvicorn

###############################################################################
# Install and launch the application
# Select one of the following

###############################################################################
# STAC
python -m pip install "psycopg[binary,pool]" stac-fastapi-pgstac
.venv/bin/uvicorn stac_fastapi.pgstac.app:app --port 8081 --reload

###############################################################################
# RASTER
python -m pip install "psycopg[binary,pool]" titiler-pgstac
.venv/bin/uvicorn titiler.pgstac.main:app --port 8082 --reload

###############################################################################
# VECTOR
python -m pip install tipg
.venv/bin/uvicorn tipg.main:app --port 8083 --reload

Deployment on the cloud

Kubernetes

eoapi-k8s contains IaC and Helm charts for deploying eoAPI services on AWS and GCP.

AWS CDK

eoapi-cdk defines a set of AWS CDK constructs that can be used to deploy eoAPI services on AWS. This repository itself makes use of these in infrastructure/aws. An official example usage of these constructs can be found at eoapi-template.

Deployment with custom runtimes

The eoAPI repository hosts customized versions of each base service which can work in parallel or in combination with each other.

eoAPI custom runtimes can be launched with docker

docker compose -f docker-compose.custom.yml --profile gunicorn up

Alternatively, you may launch the application locally:

python -m pip install --upgrade virtualenv
virtualenv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

python -m pip install "psycopg[binary,pool]" uvicorn
python -m pip install runtime/eoapi/{SERVICE}  # SERVICE should be one of `raster, vector, stac.`

export DATABASE_URL=postgresql://username:[email protected]:5439/postgis  # Connect to the database of your choice

.venv/bin/uvicorn eoapi.{SERVICE}.app:app --port 8000 --reload

Note: services might have incompatible dependencies, which you can resolve by using a virtual environment for each service
