Integrating inaturalist API with Geodesic and Boson Data Mesh for Dynamic GIS Workflow

MAY 29, 2024

We’re thrilled to share our latest innovation using the Geodesic platform to transform the iNaturalist API into a powerful spatiotemporal data service. Using our Boson data mesh, we’ve successfully integrated iNaturalist data directly into GIS workflows, dynamically serving these data to web maps. This not only enhances our ability to visualize and analyze biodiversity data but also demonstrates the versatility of our solution for any generic API. With Boson’s remote provider technology, users can stream data from REST APIs, combine them with other datasets, serve the data to web maps, and more.

Check out our detailed ArcGIS Story Map to see how we achieved this and explore the potential for leveraging diverse datasets in GIS environments.
