Accessing map feeds

Map feed addresses are in the format:

https://io.trap.nz/geo/trapnz-projects/wfs/apikey/project_id
and
https://io.trap.nz/geo/trapnz-projects/wms/apikey/project_id

for WFS and WMS feeds respectively.

The Project ID is the last part of the URL when you select your project in Trap.NZ.
I.i.e. when you select the project after logging inin, the URL will look something like https://trap.nz/node/123456, and in this case, the Project ID will be 123456.

Note: someSome of the map feeds apply the to all the projects you are a member of. If you are using those feedsfeeds, you still need to select a default project. It doesn’t matter which one.

So for a test user and project the WFS feed looks like this:
https://io.trap.nz/geo/trapnz-projects/wfs/35GElj7FEyGB-gpalO5ptgcEjxmNe7QzOiJNbEPZmSU/123456

You can paste these URLs into your GIS system and it will show you the available layers. 

ThereThe layers currently available are:

  • my-project-traps
    All traps from the Trap.NZ projects you have access to
  • my-project-traps-records
    All trap records from the Trap.NZ projects you have access to
  • my-project-monitoring -stations
    All monitoring stations from the Trap.NZ projects you have access to
  • my-project-lines
    All the lines from the Trap.NZ projects you have access to
  • my-project-bait-stations
    All bait stations from the Trap.NZ projects you have access to
  • my-projects
    The project polygons and metadata from the Trap.NZ projects you have access to
  • my-project-lines

Notes

  • More map feeds will be added over time (e.g. bait station and monitoring records)
  • The WFS server is set to return a maximum of 10k features per request.  Therefore you must set a page size value smaller than that.  We suggest 5k to begin with.
  • Trap record feeds are updated over nightovernight - they won'rt contain records added today.  Other feeds are real-time feeds.
