Automate BC GeoMark

What BC GeoMark is

The Geomark Web Service allows you to create and share geographic areas of interest over the web in a variety of formats and coordinate systems. This service is especially helpful when you need to share an area of interest with people who require that the data be in a different format, or they use different mapping software. Please note that you may experience issues when submitting requests to th

What HumDay can read from BC GeoMark

These are the operations a schedule or a trigger can watch.

• GETGet information about a particular geomark/geomarks/{geomarkId}.{fileFormatExtension}
• GETGet the individual geometries within a multi-part geometry/geomarks/{geomarkId}/parts.{fileFormatExtension}
• GETGets a single spatial point representative of the geomark./geomarks/{geomarkId}/point.{fileFormatExtension}
• GETGet the feature and attribution of the geomark/geomarks/{geomarkId}/feature.{fileFormatExtension}
• GETGets the bounding box of the geomark/geomarks/{geomarkId}/boundingBox.{fileFormatExtension}

How automating BC GeoMark works

1. Describe the outcome. Say what you want to happen, in your own words. No node graphs, no field mapping.
2. Approve the contract. HumDay writes down exactly what it will do, what it will touch, and what it will never do. You approve it before anything is built.
3. See it proven. The program runs and shows you the result before it is allowed near your live BC GeoMark account.
4. Grant access, then go live. You approve the specific BC GeoMark operations it may use — and only those.

Questions about BC GeoMark automation

Can HumDay connect to BC GeoMark?

Yes. HumDay reads BC GeoMark's own published API description and derives the operations from it, so there is no hand-built connector to wait for. 7 operations are documented.

Do I need to write code to automate BC GeoMark?

No. You describe the outcome you want in plain words. HumDay agrees a contract with you, writes the program, and shows you a test run before anything touches your BC GeoMark account.

What can HumDay do in BC GeoMark?

2 of the 7 documented operations change something in BC GeoMark, and 5 read from it. HumDay only ever uses the specific operations your approved contract needs.

Is my BC GeoMark account safe?

Your credentials are stored encrypted and are never shown in chat, code, or logs. Every run is limited to the operations you explicitly approved, and anything that writes to BC GeoMark is held behind that approval.

Where this came from

The operations above are read from a published API description for BC GeoMark at raw.githubusercontent.com/bcgov/api-specs/master/geomark/geomark.json. Descriptions are the provider’s own words, not ours. Last published 2023-03-06.
