VRAHerbicide API
FarmMaps is an asynchronous architecture, the API flow keeps this in mind. The API expects that all data is already processed and available provided, for example through the normal FarmMaps flow (frontend).
For the currently available public FarmMaps API you can take a look at swagger: http://farmmaps.awtest.nl/swagger/index.html
Input preperation
- Users can upload their own data if needed. (in case of when FarmMaps has not processed the required data).
- The farmmaps file API can be used for this.
Users can poll the task api to see if a task is completed
This can be achieved with the task execution id obtained from calling the 'ItemTask' API.
Poll task status
Users can query the API for child items of a cropfield to see what items it has.
API flow
- Authenticate User
- Optional steps
- Create cropfield through FarmMaps API
- Item 'vnd.farmmaps.itemtype.cropfield' must be created with its data as specified in the api.
- Task 'vnd.farmmaps.task.workflow' can be executed if needed executed to aggregate all needed data.
- This is an asynchronous process and can take a while before all data is collected in FarmMaps.
- Upload own data
- IF shape data, convert to geotiff.
- Querying predefined herbicide agents (for input constants if none available beforehand)
- Create cropfield through FarmMaps API
- Task 'vnd.farmmaps.task.vraherbicide' must be executed to create an application map.
- Task 'vnd.farmmaps.task.taskmap' can be executed to create a taskmap.
- Download item data (tiff of shape)
Steps
Optional
Transform shape to geotiff
The VRAHerbicide task only processes tiff items as input.
If your input data is a processed shape file it first needs to be converted to geotiff, this can be done with the 'ShapeToGeoTiffTask'.
Pass the code of the shape item into the {code} parameter, this creates a new item with tiff data as the parent of the shape item.
This new geotiff item should be used as input to the a task.

Querying predefined herbicide agents.
A list of herbicide agents can be requested by finding the "vnd.farmmaps.package.vra.herbicide" items, taking the first item found and reading it's data field 'agents' array content.

Creating an application map with the VRAHerbicide task
Execute the task with the item code of the cropfield as parameter inside {code}.
Use the input map code inside {itemCode}, specifying an inputCode for the input data item.
{itemCode} needs the code of the data input item passed into it.
An optional {extraItemCode} can be passed inside the 'extraInputcode' field to process herbicide from 2 inputs.
Fill in the agent field with an agent gotten from the herbicide agents query discussed above.
The resulting application map will be created as a child item of the cropfield item (this can be queried).

Optional input parameters
There are some optional task attribute input parameters for greater flexibility.
- inputLayerName
Allows you to specify which layer to use for an input item. - extraInputLayerName
Allows you to specify which layer to use for the extra input item. - minPercentile value between 0.0 - 1.0
Allows you to specify the minimum percentile value to 'filter' lower bound input data - maxPercentile value between 0.0 - 1.0
Allows you to specify the maximum percentile value to 'filter' upperbound bound input data - plantingDate if relevant
Allows you to specify the date the crop is planted. - measurementDate if relevant
allows you to specify the date when the measurements were taken.
Default input layer name for herbicide is the agent inputType used (lutum, om).
Default percentile values for herbicide are 0.0 and 1.0.
Default dates are 'inherited' from the cropfield item passed to the task.
