Stars is a set of .Net middleware for working with Spatio Temporal Catalog such as STAC but not only.
All services are built around the Catalog Resource :
- Route service for navigating the catalog resource.
- Supply service enables Data Providers for the assets of the catalog.
- Harvest allows the assets to be processed by various modules for extracting additional information.
- Process enable assets enhancement.
- Store for linking the different resources in a catalog. For instance, by gathering items in a collection.
Stars is basically a collection of services implemented in .Net that can be used to implement command line tools, web services or any programmtic logic around Spatio Temporal Catalogs. They can be combined togheter to perform simples operations like listing a catalog to complex processing of assets.
This is a recursive function for trigger functions during the navigation of a Catalog. Basically it reads a catalog as a tree and crawls in every node of the catalog allowing the programmer to set functions to be executed when it meets a new node, before and after branching to the node children or when the parser comes to a leaf node. This service uses the plugins manager to find the appropriate router for a catalog data model and encoding.
🔍 plugins implementing routers may reader various catalog data model and encoding. Stars Tools implements natively
- Atom feed from an OpenSearch results
- STAC (catalog, collection, item)
Service managing a collection of suppliers for providing with the assets. From a resource description (e.g. uid, AOI, time...) it requests them for the data availability and organize the delivery of the assets using Carriers (e.g. HTTP/FTP/S3 download). It also allows to make orders to suppliers that offers offline datasets. Suppliers and Carriers in this service are managed as configurable plugins.
📡 E.g. Copernicus datasets providers like DIAS can be implemented as a supllier and managed in this service.
Collection of executors that perform a scan of the data to extract useful infromation that can be added to the catalog. Executors are managed as configurable plugins.
📦 Harvester Service includes an archive extractor by default
An abstracted service enabling a trigger for procesing items of a catalog.
The coordination service links the catalogs and their items.
🌍 By default the coordinator creates a STAC catalog with the items and their assets.
Stars Services are used to provide common operations with catalogs. The currently implemented ones are:
- List crawls the tree of an input catalog
- Copy replicates the tree of items and assets from the tree of an input catalog
