OGC Maps API provides crucial information for analyzing maps and map data. The
geospatial data is currently fetched using REST APIs, and each time the parameters
have to be passed manually. A better way to handle this would be to dynamically pass
the parameters.
The idea is to create a Python client that will enable devs to GET/POST data by using
the python wrapper in their code. Requests to the API can also be made through a CLI
tool developed specifically for the API.
The main goal is to integrate the Maps API into a single client that is extensible in the
future to add other endpoints.
