Bbox parameter in query does not apply, but filter=S_INTERSECTS does

[lubojr]

Hi,
I am wondering what the issue can be with our deployment of tipg 1.0.1 can be.
We have an ingested EPSG:3857 vector data into a collection. They are displayed properly on the built-in viewer, where it should be. Tiles and features are being served correctly.

However bbox parameter does not apply the filter at all but using CQL2 spatial filter, such as: filter=S_INTERSECTS(geometry,POLYGON((10%2040,15%2040,15%2055,10%2055,10%2040))) works fine.

https://eoapi.workspace.gtif-eox.hub-otc.eox.at/vector/collections/public.excess_heat_dir_eepot_w23/items?limit=5&bbox=15,49,16,50 returns 0 items
https://eoapi.workspace.gtif-eox.hub-otc.eox.at/vector/collections/public.excess_heat_dir_eepot_w23/items?limit=5&filter=S_INTERSECTS(geometry,POLYGON((15%2049,16%2049,16%2050,15%2050,15%2049))) returns 2 items, so we can use that as a workaround.

Bbox parameter is being parsed, because when I tried to input coordinates in EPSG:3857, the validation error about coordinates not being valid longitude appeared.

I tried to replicate the same on openveda.cloud features API, but there bbox filter is applied correctly. 🤔
Can it be linked to the initial projection of our data or could it be an issue that was fixed in the meantime? Or something else entirely?

this is tested over

tipg/tests/routes/test_items.py

Lines 113 to 124 in 47e1f09

	def test_items_bbox(app):
	"""Test /items endpoint with bbox options."""
	response = app.get(
	"/collections/public.landsat_wrs/items?bbox=-94.702148,34.488448,-85.429688,41.112469"
	)
	assert response.status_code == 200
	assert response.headers["content-type"] == "application/geo+json"
	body = response.json()
	assert len(body["features"]) == 10
	assert body["numberMatched"] == 45
	assert body["numberReturned"] == 10
	Items.model_validate(body)

so I guess there is an issue with the CRS

let update https://github.com/developmentseed/tipg/blob/47e1f091ecd8e8962808753e891e9bb0d6947c31/tests/routes/test_items.py#L393C1-L403C31 to test bbox

should be fixed now https://github.com/developmentseed/tipg/blob/main/CHANGES.md#131---2026-02-26

🙏 thanks @lubojr
