Hi All Experts, need help here. I am trying to download the polygon from the map shown here. https://www.onemap.sg/main/v2/dronequery
But so far i am clueless on how to do it in Alteryx, can someone please help out?
Thanks in advance.
The site has an API: https://docs.onemap.sg/
You can use the Themes API to get the polygons
- You will need to register for a free account: https://developers.onemap.sg/signup/
- You can then use Postman to get a token from https://developers.onemap.sg/privateapi/auth/post/getToken
I couldn't get Alteryx to get the token for some reason but Postman will happily
- Use a download tool to query the themes API for:
boundary_5kmdanger_areasmha_uav_2015prohibited_areasrestricted_areaspolytra_poly
- Next, you can parse and build the polygons.
I have put together a quick attempt doing this. You will need to put a token in the top left input
This page looks like it uses javascript to render up the information selected. For spatial objects, Alteryx can bring in lat/long coordinates, shp files, kml files, grc files, etc. However, this website does not allow for easily exportable information from either a file perspective, or even lat/long coordinates. I wish it were as easy as "Point a Download tool at the webpage and parse out the data", but it is a bit more complicated than that.
