Base URL of a Berlin Geoportal WFS service — wfs_base

The Berlin spatial data infrastructure publishes one WFS endpoint per dataset under a common path, e.g. https://gdi.berlin.de/services/wfs/atkis for the ATKIS layers. This helper only composes that URL; it does not contact the server.

Usage

wfs_base_url(service, host = "https://gdi.berlin.de/services/wfs")

Arguments

service: name of the service, i.e. the last path element of the WFS endpoint (e.g. "atkis", "wsg"). This is also the namespace prefix of the feature types offered by that service.
host: base path of the WFS endpoints (default: "https://gdi.berlin.de/services/wfs").

Value

character of length one, the service URL without query string. Signals an error when service is not a single path element, because the resulting URL would otherwise be handed to xml2::read_xml(), which parses any string containing < or > as literal XML rather than fetching it.

Examples

wfs_base_url("atkis")
#> [1] "https://gdi.berlin.de/services/wfs/atkis"
