Hi Brent,
seems like a great move! I am responding to your question of a 1D WCS client.
Our project is rasdaman [1], an nD array DBMS which offers, among others, a WCS
interface. As partners & users wanted to have (individual!) clients we have
started the "rasdaman web client toolkit", raswct [2]. It supports 1D timeseries
display as one option, obtained through a WCS or WCPS request. Input widgets
allow to set parameters through gauges, sliders, etc. - you may or may not find
it useful. Feedback greatly appreciated!
best,
Peter

Hi,
I'm exploring the possibility of a GDAL driver for TIDEDA datasets. For a
description of TIDEDA, see:
http://www.niwa.co.nz/software/tideda-time-dependent-data
Briefly, it is a tool for managing timeseries data from sources like climate &
hydrometric stations. NIWA is considering Open Sourcing the tool, and enabling
interoperability with other Open Source tools & supporting data delivery via
web services (ie: via GDAL & mapserver) seems like a very useful step (whether
or not we do open up the codebase - it will be useful to the users).
The preferred (& obvious) web services to use are OGC:SOS & OGC:WCS (WCS as a
1D time series). From a client perspective I'd like to use WFS as the
site/station discovery service, then drill down to the data from the sites
with SOS/WCS.
Superficially at least, it seems that a GDAL/mapserver combination is well
suited to this task.
Can anyone here comment on how realistic this might be?
Any developers interested in undertaking the work required - initially a GDAL
driver talking to the TIDEDA api?
Is the WCS & SOS support in mapserver able to support 1D timeseries data?
Does anyone know of a CWS client that supports 1D timeseries content?
Thanks,
Brent Wood
