MetaCarta Appliance Guide to Web Services APIs and Examples

This guide documents all the appliance Web Services APIs, including the Search API, the Location Finder API, the Query Parser API, and the Saved Search and Notification API. These APIs allow you to interact with several key functions of your appliance programatically. All four of the Web Services support JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) as a return format. Additionally, the Search API supports the KML return format. The Search API allows you to search for documents indexed by an appliance based on keyword, collection, and geographic area, as well as retrieve document contents and metadata. The Location Finder API allows you to search for locations in the appliance's Geographic Data Modules. The Query Parser API interprets unstructured queries into geographic and non-geographic components. The Saved Search and Notification API interacts with the appliance's Saved Search and Notification System, allowing you to create, edit, and run saved searches.
