Platform Instance – Django REST framework

Get a list of Platform objects. Platforms have a 1:1 mapping with Observations.

### Available end points:

- `/platforms/` - Will list all Platforms in the database
- `/platforms.json` - Will return all Platforms in json format
- `/platforms/<object_id>/` - Returns Platforms object with that id

### Available Methods:

- `GET`
- `HEAD`

### Available filters:

- `title`
- `uuid`
- `keywords`
- `platformType`

### How to use filters:

- `/platforms/?title__startwith!=Instrument.title: DETAILS NEEDED`
- `/platforms/?uuid=ca06054a34a6f4a72a87e3390a8136492`

    "abstract": "The Greenhouse Gas Observing Satellite (GOSAT) observes infrared light reflected and emitted from the earth's surface and the atmosphere. Column abundances of CO2 and CH4 are calculated from the observational data. The column abundance of a gas species is expressed as the number of the gas molecules in a column above a unit surface area.  GOSAT is a Japanese satellite that flies at an altitude\r\nof approximately 666 km and completes one revolution in about 100 minutes. The satellite returns to the same point in space in three days. The observation instrument onboard the satellite is the Thermal And Near-infrared Sensor for carbon Observation (TANSO). TANSO is composed of two subunits: the Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) and the Cloud and Aerosol Imager (CAI).",
