I have investigated some more now, and I've found that the problem is perhaps the way I'm using the data source/service description file.
Here is what I do: 1) I open the wcs by providing the coverage I want by using describecoverage in the url: std::string wcsDescribeCoverage = "WCS:https://wms.geonorge.no/skwms1/wcs.hoyde-dtm1_32?SERVICE=WCS&REQUEST=DescribeCoverage&IDENTIFIERS=1&VERSION=1.1.1";; GDALDatasetUniquePtr poDS1(GDALDataset::Open(wcsGetCapabilites.c_str(), GDAL_OF_READONLY, pOptionDriverName, pOptionOpenOptions, nullptr)); Now I have a valid data set, poDS1. And a service description file has been created in the cache: <WCS_GDAL> <ServiceURL>https://wms.geonorge.no/skwms1/wcs.hoyde-dtm1_32?</ServiceURL> <Version>1.1.1</Version> <CoverageName>1</CoverageName> <Parameters>SERVICE=WCS&REQUEST=DescribeCoverage</Parameters> <TIMEOUT>300</TIMEOUT> </WCS_GDAL> 2) Then I run GDALTranslate(), with a valid argList GDALTranslateOptions *TranslateOptions = GDALTranslateOptionsNew(argList, NULL); GDALDatasetH hOutputDataset = GDALTranslate("./test.xyz", GDALDataset::ToHandle(poDS2.get()), TranslateOptions, NULL); During the GDALTranslate() I find that in wcsdataset110.cpp, WCSDataset110::GetCoverageRequest(), line 227: - After the GetCoverage request have been constructed, the parameters from the service description file is used to overwrite the created request, making it a DescribeCoverage request as stated in the file. - And DescribeCoverage don't want IDENTIFIER=someId, but IDENTIFIERS=someId Then, my question is, how am I supposed to do this, to make it right? >Odd-Ragnar< -----Original Message----- From: Peter Baumann <p.baum...@jacobs-university.de> Sent: tirsdag 9. oktober 2018 15:10 To: jratike80 <jukka.rahko...@maanmittauslaitos.fi>; gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org Subject: Re: [gdal-dev] WCS: Bug in WCSDataset110::GetCoverageRequest() On 09.10.2018 15:06, jratike80 wrote: > Odd Ragnar Lydersen wrote >> I think there is a bug in WCSDataset110::GetCoverageRequest() >> At line 178: "&VERSION=%s&REQUEST=GetCoverage&IDENTIFIER=%s" >> Should be : "&VERSION=%s&REQUEST=GetCoverage&IDENTIFIERS=%s" >> >> At least that fixes my problem, and I can get one step further in my >> effort to use the wcs driver, using C++ API, on Windows. >> >>> Odd-Ragnar< > Hi, > > I believe that GDAL is right and the WCS server that you are using is wrong. > By reading the standard > https://portal.opengeospatial.org/files/07-067r5 > the name of the parameter in GetCoverage is "identifier".
