The Earth at night, released by NASA. For more information, see NASA Earth Observatory "Night Lights".
Raster tiles on zoom levels 0 to 6 were derived from a 54000x27000 pixel GeoTIFF image using rio-mbtiles.

_Note: This API is based on API building blocks (e.g., operations, query parameters, or headers) specified in OGC API Standards or drafts of those standards. For more information about OGC API Standards, see [https://ogcapi.ogc.org](https://ogcapi.ogc.org/). Some building blocks of this API can be preliminary and may change in this API, because they are not yet based on a stable specification. The maturity is stated for each building block._

# paths./.get.description
The landing page provides links to the API definition (link relations `service-desc` and `service-doc`), the Conformance declaration (path `/conformance`, link relation `conformance`), and other resources in the API.

# paths./.get.externalDocs.description
The specification that describes this operation: OGC API - Features - Part 1: Core

# paths./.get.responses.200.description
The operation was executed successfully.

# paths./conformance.get.description
The URIs of all conformance classes supported by the server. This information is provided to support 'generic' clients that want to access multiple OGC API implementations - and not 'just' a specific API. For clients accessing only a single API, this information is in general not relevant and the OpenAPI definition details the required information about the API.

The tile in the requested tiling scheme ('{tileMatrixSetId}'), on the requested zoom level ('{tileMatrix}'), with the requested grid coordinates ('{tileRow}', '{tileCol}') is returned. The tile has one layer per collection with all selected features in the bounding box of the tile with the requested properties.
