Basic API for statistical analysis
In this user story we want to discuss the features that should be made available for the statistical analysis. Our current plan is to let the user select a spatial and temporal subset of the data and compute some statistics for them (mean, percentiles, standard deviation, etc.). Which metric is available thereby is up to the individual backend module.
The outcome of this user story should be an API documentation that describes the central functionalities of the backend module and how it can be called from the Web UI.
We will start with a meeting where the development team describes the messaging framework and the API that we suggest. We will then talk about possible improvements and other functionalities that could or should be implemented. Central questions are:
- what sub-setting methods (temporal and spatial) are required?
- how flexible should the backend modules be?
The development team will revise the API description and schedule another meeting for approval.
