Usage examples¶
Collection query¶
The entry point for collections is:
https://ogcapi.dgterritorio.gov.pt/collections
From there, select the required collection and consult the documentation for the corresponding operation.
Paginated query¶
For large volumes, use the pagination mechanisms provided by the operation.
The maximum number of features per response and pagination parameters should be confirmed in the OpenAPI specification for the version in production.
Spatial query¶
Where the operation supports spatial filters, limit the query to the area of interest.
This reduces the volume transferred and generally improves performance and reduces the load on the service.
GIS integration¶
OGC APIs can be used by GIS software and applications that support the corresponding OGC specifications.
Actual compatibility depends on the software version and the API being used.
