6.3.2 Direct planning The typical scenario is:

‐ The client gets the capabilities of the server using the GetCapabilities operation GET . ‐ Selects the sensor to be tasked from the GetCapabilities and optionally if more information is required the DescribeSensor methods GET procedures{sps:procedure}{swes:sensorDescriptionFormat?}. The user then requests the format of the Tasking parameters needed to submit a task, through the DescribeTasking operation GET procedures{sps:procedure}tasking. ‐ Then this structure is filled in on the client side, allowing the user to choose the area of interest, the time of interest, as well as other parameters such as the instrument mode. ‐ This structure is then sent to the server as part of a Submit request corresponding to POST planning. This will return a set of segments representing the acquisitions that have been submitted to fulfill the given request. This will start a new planning task. ‐ After that, the following events are possible: o The user requests the status of the task using the GetStatus operation GET planning{taskID}, or the complete description of the task using the GetTask operation GET planning{taskID}segments. o The user cancels the task using the Cancel operation DELETE planning{taskID}. ‐ Once the task is finished, which corresponds to all segments involved begin acquired, the user can do the following: o Get the data describing a given segment, through the GetTask GET planning{taskID}segments, and the results with the DescribeResultAccess operation GET planning{taskID}results. This will provide the means to connect to the Download Server in order to get the acquired products. ‐ After assessing these results, validate a given segment using the Validate POST planning{taskID}segments{segmentID} operation. 33 Copyright © 2014 Open Geospatial Consortium Figure 6-2 Direct planning sequence diagram sd DirectPlanning RESET Client RESET Server Download Server opt opt opt opt getCapabilities describeSensor describeTasking fillInRequest submittaskingParameters getStatustaskID canceltaskID getTasktaskID describeResultAccesstaskID validatetaskID, segmentID downloadResults 34 Copyright © 2014 Open Geospatial Consortium
