OGC API – Moving Features, an introduction with MF-API Server based on pygeoapi and MobilityDB
11-28, 14:00–18:00 (Asia/Seoul), Taepyeong Hall

Moving feature data can represent various phenomena, including vehicles, people, animals, weather patterns, and more. Conceptually, Moving Features are dynamic geospatial data that change location and possibly other characteristics over time.

OGC API – Moving Features (OGC API – MF) provides a standard and interoperable way to manage such data, with valuable applications in transportation management, disaster response, environmental monitoring, and beyond. OGC API – MF also includes operations for filtering, sorting, and aggregating moving feature data based on location, time, and other properties.

This workshop will get you started with OGC API – MF and its implementation in MF-API Server that is based on pygeoapi and MobilityDB, covering the following questions:
- What is the core concept of OGC API – MF (and OGC MF-JSON format)?
- How to implement OGC API – MF with pygeoapi and MobilityDB?
- How can we visualize its results with STINUUM (with CesiumJS)?
- How can we implement a new feature that hasn't been implemented yet?

The below open sources will be used in this workshop:
- MF-API Server based on pygeoapi: https://github.com/aistairc/mf-api
- OGC API – Moving Features official GitHub repository: https://github.com/opengeospatial/ogcapi-movingfeatures
- MobilityDB (and its Python driver, PyMEOS, and MEOS): https://github.com/MobilityDB
- STINUUM: https://github.com/aistairc/mf-cesium
The installation of each program will use a Docker file.

Lastly, you can check many helpful information about OGC API – MF here: https://ogcapi.ogc.org/movingfeatures/
