Philadelphia Public Art API

Description

A read-only, RESTful JSON API.
The core function of the API is to return descriptions of pieces of public art in Philadelphia
Documentation includes a JavaScript tester with visible source code.
There are two primary types of data returned by this API: those that exist purely for navigation and those that return descriptions of art.
The JSON format for the artworks is consistent in all responses.
Some responses describe collections of art. Some collection types include extra information specific to the collection itself.
Mostly conforms to a HATEOAS model of navigation and the use of the "links":{"rel":"X","href":"Y"} structure.
Also supports a geolocation call which returns a collection that is defined by bb and ll URL arguments
