Jätkäsaari Open Data Catalog

General

This document describes open data interfaces for Conveqs open data. Currently there are two ways for accessing the data: 1) connecting to the websocket interface for stream of messages, and 2) fetching the data via REST interface. Both interfaces provide similar json format (described below).

Websocket connections

Connecting to websocket server

In order to get the data stream via websocket, one has to connect to the server (jatkasaari.conveqs.fi) with wss protocol. The streams for radar data are located at wss://jatkasaari.conveqs.fi/ws/radar/json. In addition to URL one needs to set the query parameters to the URL, namely the [SUBJECT] and [TOKEN].

A full websocket request will be like:
wss://jatkasaari.conveqs.fi/ws/radar/json/?subject=[SUBJECT]&token=[TOKEN]

Token is a public key, you can request from jatkasaari@conveqs.fi. An exampole code for connecting can be found in the following chapter

Sample code, Python

One can access the websocket stream for radar 1 with following code:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
"""Sample client for testing the Conveqs radar data connection

This module demonstrates usage of Conveqs radar data stream by making a
connection to one radar and subscribing to geacoordinate data in json-format.
After subscriotion, the data are priunted to screen.

Example:
    $ python client.py
"""

import websocket

# Callback functions

def on_message(ws, message):
    print(message)

def on_error(ws, error):
    print(error)

def on_close(ws):
    print("### closed ###")

def on_open(ws):
    print("### closed ###")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    websocket.enableTrace(True)

    url = "wss://jatkasaari.conveqs.fi/ws/radar/json"
    subject = "radar.1.objects_geo.json"
    token = "ADD YOUR TOKEN HERE"

    wsc_url = "%s/?subject=%s&token=%s" % (url, subject, token)

    ws = websocket.WebSocketApp(
        wsc_url,
        on_message=on_message,
        on_error=on_error,
        on_close=on_close)

    ws.run_forever()

Note: in order to work, you will need a valid web-token. You can request one from jatkasaari@conveqs.fi

Data types

Radar Geocoordinate data (JSON)

General

This data includes location measurements from Smart Micro radars. The radar tracks moving objects appearing in it's beam covering up to eight lanes of traffic up to 150 meters from radar location, a typical set up can be seen in Figure 1. In addition to location, radar measures the speed and length of the object. Measurement is updated 10 times per second, and each object is tracked by assigning a uniquer id numbber for it.

In addition to location and speed vectors, accuracy information, vehicle type and lane id are provided with the data. Detailed description of the data fields are given in following chapter.

Data fields

Each message contains header fields describing the message and a list of detections and a list of objects followed by the radar

After the header there is a list of detections containing following fields:
