OrbisData is a library that offers a unique access point to query, manage and retrieve data.
It is based on Groovy specific syntax and aims to provide a simple and fluent framework to work with geospatial data.
## Getting Started
OrbisData need at least Java 11 to work.
### Architecture
OrbisData is organized around two modules : Data and Process.
#### Data
The Data module are dedicated to the creation, the access and the
requesting of databases.
Currently, two spatial database are supported `H2/H2GIS` and `Postgresql/Postgis`.
It provides also a module to manage dataframe as R language proposes,
thanks to the Smile (Statistical Machine Intelligence and Learning Engine) library (https://haifengl.github.io/).
#### Process
The Process module are dedicated to the creation of processes
with the definition of the in/output. Processes can be executed with
input values and can also be chained.
### How to add OrbisData
#### Maven
To add OrbisData to a Maven project, add the nexus repository to the pom :
``` xml
...
Central Portal Snapshots
central-portal-snapshots
https://central.sonatype.com/repository/maven-snapshots/
false
true
...
```
and add the desired module :
``` xml
...
...
...
org.orbisgis
data
2.1.1
...
...
...
```
#### Groovy
Using Grab annotation :
``` groovy
@Grab(group='org.orbisgis.data', module='h2gis', version='2.1.1')
@Grab(group='org.orbisgis.data', module='postgis', version='2.1.1')
```
OrbisData encapsulates rows,columns from a database to a table or spatial table.
The following code shows how to get the column names from an H2GIS table.
``` groovy
def h2GIS = H2GIS.open('/tmp/myh2gis_db')
println h2GIS.getTable("myTableName").columns
```
The next code shows how to iterate over the geometry stored in a table and apply a buffer
on them.
the_geom refers to the column name and the object returned is a
JTS geometry object (https://github.com/locationtech/jts).
``` groovy
def h2GIS = H2GIS.open('/tmp/myh2gis_db')
h2GIS.getSpatialTable("myTableName").each(it ->
println it.the_geom.buffer(10)
)
```
