xcube geoDB

xcube geoDB is a geo-spatial database within the xcube ecosystem. xcube geoDB reads features from e.g. Shapefiles in the form of a GeoDataFrame and processes them in a custom PostgreSQL database provided by Brockmann Consult and the Euro Data Cube (EDC) consortium. The processed data can be accessed and queried via a REST API with full querying capabilities.
