Fixed

  • Reorganized and cleaned up repository.
  • Fixed examples throughout.

Added

  • Changelog: This changelog added.
  • Collections added: Collections are a type of Catalog with additional fields, such as provider and license. Items must belong to a single Collection.
  • Extension maturity: Protocol for providing maturity classification for extensions based on stability and implementations.
  • Commons extension: The previous 'Collections' extension is now the 'Commons' extension and allows an Item to inherit properties from its Collection.
  • Datetime-range extension: Extension for providing start and end datetimes.
  • Scientific extension: Extension for providings links to scientific publications relating to the data.
  • rel types: A list of supported rel types are provided for use when specifying links, derived_from and license types added.
  • eo:constellation: A new field in the EO specification to specify a grouping of platforms.
  • stac_version: The stac_version field is required on all Catalogs (and Collections).
  • JSON schemas: Added JSON schemas where they were missing.
  • Single Item extension: Extension to supply License and Providers for single Items when no collection is used.
  • UML Diagram: See STAC-060-uml.pdf.
  • Development Process: See process.md for information on the STAC development process.

Changed

  • API: Main catalog endpoint at /stac, search endpoint now at /stac/search.
  • eo:bands: The eo:bands field is now an array rather than a dictionary, and has been moved inside of properties in a STAC Item.
  • Catalog fields: Catalogs have a smaller number of basic fields: id, stac_version, title (optional), description, and links. The new Collections type contains additional fields.
  • links: The links fields are now an array rather than a dictionary.
  • properties: Fields with the data type array or objects are allowed inside the properties in a STAC Item.
  • description: Description fields now allow formatting with CommonMark.
  • assets: Fields changed names: name to title and mime_type to type.

Removed:

  • provider: Provider field in Items got removed. Use Collections or the Single Item extension instead.
  • license: License field in Items got removed. Use Collections or the Single Item extension instead.
