GET

Platform Instance

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`
- `/platforms.json?instrumentType=radiometer`

The RASS network uses backscattering of radio waves from an acoustic wave front to measure the speed of sound at various heights above the ground. From the speed of sound, the temperature of the air in the planetary boundary layer can be computed.Hourly observations from around 120 stations distributed globally, and the report is transmitted at 6-hourly intervals at the standard hours of observation which are: 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC. The RASS message contains measurements of parameters such as wind speed and temperature.",
