Reader Overview

The STAC Metadata Reader allows for several different types of datasets. Here is a brief summary of each STAC data type.

  • STAC Item – Represents a single spatiotemporal asset as GeoJSON with additional metadata, and is the foundational building block of STAC.
  • STAC Catalog – A simple JSON file of links used to browse STAC Items.
  • STAC Collection– An extension of the STAC Catalog with some additional information.
  • STAC API – Provides a RESTful endpoint that enables search of STAC Items.
  • STAC FeatureCollection – Refers to multiple STAC Items and is generated in response to a user query to a STAC API.
