Brice Schaffner contributed to the geoadmin/service-stac and geoadmin/web-mapviewer repositories by delivering robust API and deployment improvements. He upgraded the STAC API specification to 1.0.0, aligning YAML, HTML, and schema documentation for better client integration, and added COPC .laz extension support to enhance dataset interoperability. Brice centralized cache control, improved asset lifecycle management, and exposed new API endpoints, using Python, Django, and OpenAPI Specification. On geoadmin/web-mapviewer, he refactored the CI/CD pipeline and asset deployment strategies with Node.js and Vite, ensuring reliable, atomic releases. His work demonstrated strong attention to versioning, traceability, and maintainability.

October 2025: Delivered the STAC API specification upgrade to 1.0.0 for geoadmin/service-stac, updating YAML specs, HTML responses, schemas, and docs to align with the latest STAC features. Implemented a version consistency fix to ensure reliable client integration, with clear commit traceability. The work improves interoperability, onboarding, and long-term maintainability.

March 2025 highlights across geoadmin/service-stac and geoadmin/mf-chsdi3: Delivered key API and data lifecycle improvements that enhance caching, API reliability, data integrity, and developer experience. Implemented centralized collection-level cache control with deprecation of update_interval, exposing and documenting public collection assets endpoints, strengthening asset lifecycle with non-editable fields and flexible PATCH behavior, and improving testing/development workflows. Introduced beta tagging for development branches to improve release planning for ongoing work. These changes collectively deliver business value through more predictable caching, clearer API contracts, stronger data integrity, and a more robust development/testing environment.
