## Request Headers

### Accept

Accept headers: `application/json`, `text/csv`, `application/geo+json`

Possible header and request parameter combinations:

- If the Accept header is `text/csv` or `applicatin/geo+json`, the raw CSV or GeoJSON response is returned.
- If the Accept header is `application/json` with an output field of `geojson`, the entire JSON object with metadata including GeoJSON response is returned.
- If the Accept header is `application/json` with an output field of `csv`, the entire JSON object with metadata including CSV response is returned.
- If the Accept header is `application/json` without an output field, the entire JSON object with metadata including GeoJSON response is returned.
- If the Accept header is none of the accepted types then a 415 Unsupported is returned.

Example GeoJSON request and response:

```bash
curl -v --header "Accept: application/geo+json" --location 'https://soto.podaac.sit.earthdatacloud.nasa.gov/hydrocron/v1/timeseries?feature=Reach&feature_id=63470800171&start_time=2024-02-01T00:00:00%2b00:00&end_time=2024-10-30T00:00:00%2b00:00&fields=reach_id,time_str,wse'
```

Content-Type: 'application/geo+json'

### output : string, required: no

Format of the data returned. Either: "csv" or "geojson"

### compact: string, required: no

Whether to return a 'compact' GeoJSON response. Either: "true" or "false"

The default for header `Accept: application/geo+json` is to set compact to `true` if it is not provided. The default header for `application/json` is to set compact to `false` if it is not provided. See "Response" section for details on the returned compact response.

## Returns

CSV or GEOJSON file containing the data for the selected feature and time period.
### Default

This includes cases where Accept header is not included or equals `*/*` or `application/json`.

Returns a JSON response that contains CSV or GeoJSON in `results` object with a Content-Type set to 'application/json'.

If the user sends a request parameter of `output=csv` then the `results` object will contain CSV data of the requested fields.

Example CSV response:

```json
{
"status": "200 OK",
"time": 806.886,
"hits": 4,
"results": {
"csv": "reach_id,time_str,wse,geometry,wse_units\n72390300011,2024-01-29T15:06:46Z,41.2087,\"LINESTRING (-62.159497 50.285927)\",m\n",
"geojson": {}
}
}
```

If the user sends a request parameter of `output=geojson` then the `results` object will contain GeoJSON data of the requested fields.

Example JSON response:

```json
{
"status": "200 OK",
"time": 723.004,
"hits": 2,
"results": {
"csv": "",
"geojson": {
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"features": [
{
"id": "0",
"type": "Feature",
"properties": {
"reach_id": "63470800171",
"time_str": "2024-02-01T02:26:50Z",
"wse": "3386.9332",
"wse_units": "m"
},
"geometry": {
"type": "LineString",
"coordinates": [
[

"coordinates": [
[
-45.845445,
-16.166559
]
]
}
}
]
}
}
}
```

If the user sends a request parameter of `compact=true` and the request parameter `output=geojson`, the response will be compacted. The compacted response appends time series data into a single list for each requested field and is stored under the `properties` object in the `results` object.

Only one Feature is ever returned as the data is aggregated under a single "Feature". The geometry for the data is included in the response's `geometry` object which is listed once as there is only one Feature represented in the response.

Example compacted JSON response:

```json
{
"status": "200 OK",
"time": 2175.824,
"hits": 2,
"results": {
"csv": "",
"geojson": {

### application/geo+json

When the `Accept` header is set to `application/geo+json` and there is no `output` request parameter, a GeoJSON response is returned with a Content-Type set to 'application/geo+json'.

The default behavior is to compact the response into a single "Feature". The compacted response appends time series data into a single list for each requested field and includes a single geometry object for the data.

Example compacted GeoJSON response:

```json
{
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"features": [
{
"id": "0",
"type": "Feature",
"properties": {
"reach_id": [
"63470800171",
"63470800171"
],
"time_str": [
"2024-02-01T02:26:50Z",
"2024-02-08T13:48:41Z"
],
"wse": [
"3386.9332",
"1453.4136"
],
"wse_units": [
"m",
"m"
]
},
"geometry": {
"type": "LineString",
"coordinates": [
[
-45.845445,
-16.166559
]
]
}
}
]
}
```

*Coordinates removed

If the user sends a request parameter of `compact=false` then the GeoJSON response will not be compacted and there will be one "Feature" per time step.

Example GeoJSON response that is not compacted:

```json
{
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"features": [
{
"id": "0",
"type": "Feature",
"properties": {
"reach_id": "63470800171",
"time_str": "2024-02-01T02:26:50Z",
"wse": "3386.9332",
"wse_units": "m"
},
"geometry": {
"type": "LineString",
"coordinates": []
}
},
{
"id": "1",
"type": "Feature",
"properties": {
"reach_id": "63470800171",
"time_str": "2024-02-08T13:48:41Z",
"wse": "1453.4136",
"wse_units": "m"
},
"geometry": {
"type": "LineString",
"coordinates": []
}
}
]
}
```

*Coordinates removed

### text/csv

When the `Accept` header is set to `text/csv` and there is no `output` request parameter, a CSV response is returned with Content-Type set to 'text/csv'.

Example CSV response:

```bash
"reach_id,time_str,wse,wse_units\n63470800171,2024-02-01T02:26:50Z,3386.9332,m\n63470800171,2024-02-08T13:48:41Z,1453.4136,m\n"
```
