cannot read such files directly back, which appeared to be true.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

a format. Use case was to query pixel values from a WCS service. Requesting a single pixel GeoTIFF makes things unnecessary difficult for such simple need.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Not directly.<br>
You could add a header line with the appropriate column names, by making the Z<br>
column to point to a different column each time.<br>
