DAAS (Airbus DS Intelligence Data As A Service driver)
Driver short name
DAAS
New in version 3.0.
Build dependencies
libcurl
This driver can connect to the Airbus DS Intelligence Data As A Service API. GDAL/OGR must be built with Curl support in order for the DAAS driver to be compiled.
Orthorectified (with geotransform) and raw (with RPCs) images are supported.
Overviews are supported.
The API is not publicly available but will be released soon. Further information will be found here: https://api.oneatlas.airbus.com/
Driver capabilities
Supports Georeferencing
This driver supports georeferencing
Dataset name syntax
The nominal syntax to open a datasource is :
DAAS:https://example.com/path/to/image/metadata
A more minimal syntax can be used:
DAAS:
provided that the GET_METADATA_URL open option is filled.
Authentication
Access to the API requires an authentication token. There are two methods supported:
Authentication with an API key and a client id. They must be provided respectively with the API_KEY open option (or
GDAL_DAAS_API_KEY
configuration option) and the CLIENT_ID open option (orGDAL_DAAS_CLIENT_Id
configuration option). In that case, the driver will authenticate against the authentication endpoint to get an access token.Directly providing the access token with the ACCESS_TOKEN open option (or
GDAL_DAAS_ACCESS_TOKEN
configuration option).
In both cases, the X_FORWARDED_USER open option (or
GDAL_DAAS_X_FORWARDED_USER
configuration option) can be specified to
fill the HTTP X-Forwarded-User header in requests sent to the DAAS
service endpoint with the user from which the request originates from.
See https://api.oneatlas.airbus.com/guides/g-authentication/ for further details
Open options
The following open options are available :
GET_METADATA_URL=value: URL to the GetImageMetadata endpoint. Required if not specified in the connection string.
API_KEY=value: API key for authentication. If specified, must be used together with the CLIENT_ID option. Can be specified also through the GDAL_DAAS_API_KEY configuration option.
CLIENT_ID=value: Client id for authentication. If specified, must be used together with the API_KEY option. Can be specified also through the GDAL_DAAS_CLIENT_ID configuration option.
ACCESS_TOKEN=value: Access token. Can be specified also through the GDAL_DAAS_ACCESS_TOKEN configuration option. Exclusive of API_KEY/CLIENT_ID
X_FORWARDED_USER=value: User from which the request originates from. Can be specified also through the GDAL_DAAS_X_FORWARDED_USER configuration option.
BLOCK_SIZE=value. Size of a block in pixels requested to the server. Defaults to 512 pixels. Between 64 and 8192.
PIXEL_ENCODING=value. Format in which pixels are queried. Defaults to
AUTO: for 1, 3 or 4-band images of type Byte, resolves to PNG. Otherwise to RAW
RAW: compatible of all images. Pixels are requested in a uncompressed raw format.
PNG: compatible of 1, 3 or 4-band images of type Byte
JPEG: compatible of 1 or 3-band images of type Byte
JPEG2000: compatible of all images. Requires GDAL to be built with one of its JPEG2000-capable drivers.
MASKS=YES/NO. Whether to expose mask bands. Default to YES.
