go-elevate

microservice that gets ground height based on lat and lon coordinates

API

coordinates are in radians

1. GET /heights?coords=%5B%7B%22lon%22%3A138.72905%2C%22lat%22%3A35.360638%7D%2C%7B%22lat%22%3A27.986065%2C%22lon%22%3A86.922623%7D%5D

$ curl -G -v "http://localhost:1323/heights" --data-urlencode 'coords=[{"lon":138.72905,"lat":35.360638},{"lat":27.986065,"lon":86.922623}]'

2. POST /heights

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d  '{"coords":[{"lon":138.72905,"lat":35.360638},{"lat":27.986065,"lon":86.922623}]}' \
'127.0.0.1:1323/heights'

How to compile

Resolver dependencies first

$ glide install

And then compile the code

$ make

How to build docker

$ make dock-build

How to docker compose

$ make dock-compose

TODO

1. HTTP doc for API
2. caching of the request (redis) or may be even save in heights in regular DB (AWS tiles might be shut down)
3. support of different coordinate types (radians, degrees ... etc.)
