Catalog-only system for LIDAR-derived 1m DEMs covering Texas. We do not mirror raster data — the DB stores tile metadata (URL + footprint geometry) and elevation values are streamed on-demand from public USGS 3DEP / TNRIS Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFFs via GDAL /vsicurl/ HTTP byte-range reads. Used for future tower coverage line-of-sight calculations. - Enable PostGIS extension; tile footprints indexed via GiST - Catalog sync from USGS 3DEP (primary) and TNRIS (fallback for gaps) - Tile dedup by ST_Contains so TNRIS doesn't duplicate 3DEP coverage - Single-point reads via gdallocationinfo with tile fallthrough on nodata - Grid retrieval via gdal_translate AAIGrid with multi-tile mosaicing - Monthly Oban cron worker keeps catalog fresh - gdal-bin added to runtime image; geo_postgis dep added |

Kubernetes Deployment
Secrets Management
Secrets are managed directly in the cluster and must be created before deploying the application.
Required secrets in the towerops namespace:
gitlab-registry- Docker registry credentials for pulling imagestowerops-secrets- Application secrets (RELEASE_COOKIE, SECRET_KEY_BASE)towerops-db- Database connection credentialstowerops-aws- AWS credentials (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_REGION)
For local development, the project root .envrc is used by direnv.
Deployment Timestamp
The application footer displays the deployment timestamp to track when the current version was deployed. This is automatically set by GitLab CI during deployment:
# GitLab CI sets this during deploy
- kubectl set env deployment/towerops DEPLOY_TIMESTAMP=$(date -u +"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ") -n towerops
All pods in the deployment share the same timestamp (when the deployment was initiated), regardless of when individual pods were created. This is displayed in the footer as "Last deployed X ago · YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS UTC".
For manual deployments without GitLab CI, set the timestamp:
kubectl set env deployment/towerops DEPLOY_TIMESTAMP=$(date -u +"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ") -n towerops
Deploying
Apply all resources using kustomize:
kubectl apply -k k8s/
Or individually:
kubectl apply -f k8s/namespace.yaml
kubectl apply -f k8s/secret.yaml
kubectl apply -f k8s/deployment.yaml
kubectl apply -f k8s/service.yaml
kubectl apply -f k8s/service-headless.yaml
kubectl apply -f k8s/certificate.yaml
kubectl apply -f k8s/ingressroute.yaml
