RF Propagation API
HTTP API for radio visibility, terrain profiles, Fresnel/LOS checks, link budget, viewshed, and coverage calculations.
This repository follows SPEC.md. The first implementation pass creates the full
service skeleton, pure RF/math kernels, and Copernicus DEM sampling. Integrations
that require PostGIS data, pycraf, ITM/P.1812, landcover/canopy rasters, or
external viewshed binaries are exposed through stable interfaces and return
explicit "not implemented" responses until the corresponding data pipeline is
connected.
Layout
api/- FastAPI service, core calculations, service orchestration, tests.scripts/- data bootstrap/import entry points.data/- mounted data volume for DEM, landcover, and canopy rasters.docker-compose.yml- local stack with API, worker, Redis, PostGIS, optional tiler.
Quick Start
cp .env.example .env
docker compose up --build api redis postgis
The API is served at http://localhost:8000, with OpenAPI docs at /docs.
DEM Bootstrap
Download Copernicus DEM GLO-30 COG tiles for Saint Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast:
python scripts/bootstrap_dem.py --bbox 27.3,58.4,35.8,61.4 --output-dir data/dem
docker compose restart api worker
The API samples all .tif/.tiff files under DEM_PATH recursively. In Docker,
the default DEM_PATH=/data/dem points to the mounted ./data/dem directory.
For local Python development:
cd api
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"
python -m pytest
python -m ruff check .
