Apache Superset and OGC WFS – Using Open Standards to Create Urban Intelligence Dashboards

Content

Apache Superset is an open-source business intelligence platform and a component of the CivitasConnect UDP Core. As part of the Connected Urban Twins funding project (BMWSB, KTS), the implementation of OGC WFS as a data source was commissioned and developed. This strengthens the geospatial component of Apache Superset in terms of open data standards.

Apache Superset OGC WFS-Schnittstelle

Im Rahmen des CUT Projekts wurde die Weiterentwicklung von Apache Suerset hinsichtlich der Einbindung von OGC WFS als Datenquelle der Dashboard-Charts (inklusive Cross-/Filterung) beauftragt. Die zentrale Idee besteht darin die Geodatenkomponente bzw. die Fähigkeit räumliche Daten in Dashboards zu implementieren von Apache Superset zu stärken. Zur Installation des Dialekts in Superset bitte die offizielle Superset Dokumentation, sowie die Dokumentation des WFS Dialekts berücksichtigen.

The Key Learnings

More geodata as a source

The development of the OGC WFS interface in Apache Superset strengthens the integration of geodata as a data source for charts and maps based on open standards.

Data analysis and visualisation made easy

Thanks to its enhanced geospatial capabilities and low-code functionality, this open-source software provides a robust technical platform for spatial data analysis and visualisation.

One platform for everyone

Apache Superset enables even local authorities with limited resources to create their own data-driven dashboards – without the need for in-depth programming knowledge.
