API

API

This wiki page describes all available API functions.
Please contact Markus if you have any suggestions for improvement or bugs to report.

API key

Most of the API calls require an API key. This API key can be obtained by registering here.
All uploaded data will be stored along with this API key. This offers many functions, including the deletion of data from users that provide incorrect data.
It also allows the identification of users that are violating the community server usage policy.

In the examples below "apiKey" is used for this parameter.

"changeable" attribute

The meaning of the "changeable" value returned by some methods is the following:

• some cell positions in the database are precise; for example, the GSM network provider O2 in Germany provides GPS information along with the Cell ID information and software is able to extract this information for OpenCellID.
  
• in this case, new measurements for the cell are stored and shown on the map; however, their GPS positions are not used for calculating the GPS position of the cell tower.

changeable=1:
the GPS position of the cell tower has been calculated from all available measurements

changeable=0:
the GPS position of the cell tower is precise; no measurements have been used to calculate it.

Filtering of data

The following filters are currently applied to all incoming data.
Wrong data is inserted into a database table with suspect data which can be re-examined at a later stage if required.

Parameter	Rules
MCC	must be known in the database
MCC	must be in the range: (100..999)
MNC	must be known in the database
MNC	must be > 0
LAC	must be > 0 and LAC!=2147483647
CID	must be > 0 and LAC!=2147483647
longitude	must be float (not integer)
longitude	must be in the range: (-180,0) U (0,180)
longitude	must be != 0
latitude	must be float (not integer)
latitude	must be in the range: (-90,0) U (0,90)
latitude	must be != 0

Response

Upon successful insert, HTTP 200 is returned with the string "Your measurement has been inserted."

Business logic

The request is handled by de.enaikoon.gpssuite.web.measure.NewMeasureController.
The parameters are read into a map and then parsed into a de.enaikoon.m2m.gsmcellmanagment.model.CellMeasurement, and persisted by de.enaikoon.m2m.gsmcellmanagment.dao.mongodb.GsmCellDao (see the Spring common-business.xml configuration) which saves data via a Mongo driver.
The user is deduced from the API key which is a string unique to each user. User ID is persisted as a field in the same object. Suspect measurements are saved into a special collection: CellMeasurementSuspect.

Example

http://www.opencellid.org/measure/add?key=xxx&lat=10.11&lon=11.12&mcc=100&mnc=10&lac=11&cellid=12&rating=10&direction=90&act=GPRS

Time needed for processing newly uploaded measurements

After uploading new measurements to the OpenCellID community servers they can be found immediately in the database.
We aim a processing time below 5 seconds. This maximum time for storing a measurement is currently met.

Measurements are processed every 20 minutes for updating existing cell tower information and for adding a new cell tower to the cell tower table.
This means that if you upload a measurement of a cell tower that was not in the database before you have to expect 20 minutes until a query delivers the newly uploaded cell tower information.

FAQ

What does "optional" mean?
"optional" means that this field is not required in the csv file.
Minimal csv file looks as follows:

mcc,mnc,lac,cellid,lon,lat<br>
262,2,434,9200,9.436598,52.892139

What does "Supplemented by the parameter key=<apiKey> as form POST field, which is the user's API key" mean?
This means that the user must send his data (apiKey and csv file) in the same way as from the following form:

<form method="post" action="http://opencellid.org/measure/uploadCsv"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
ApiKey: 
<input type="text" name="key" /><br/> 
CSV (max 2MB): 
<input type="file" name="datafile" /><br/> 
<input type="submit" name="upload" value="Upload"/> </form>

What does the following error mean?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rsp stat="fail"><err info=" cell not found" code="1"/></rsp>

This error message means that no cell was found for the given user criteria (mcc-mnc-lac-cid combination was not found in database).
