I'm not sure if anyone remembers this post from a while ago or not but I
discovered a solution.  I am running MapServer 5.3-dev and testing WCS
1.0.0.  I discovered that the RESPONSE_CRS parameter must be the same as
the CRS parameter (or, more simply, not be used at all).  If they are
different an error is generated with respect to the bounding box of the
request being outside the bounding box of the coverage.  It doesn't seem
to matter whether or not the coordinate system of the request is the
same as the coordinate system of the source.  The coordinate system of
the response will be the same as the coordinate system of the request.
The issue here is that the RESPONSE_CRS parameter does not seem to have
been implemented correctly and, considering that the parameter is
optional, perhaps it's not a big issue.  Just something the user needs
to be aware of.

I am trying to develop a WCS layer (1.0.0) and I can successfully issue
the GetCapabilities and DescribeCoverage requests.  However, when I
issue a GetCoverage request I get a bounding box error due to bad
coordinates.  The layer is also set up as a WMS layer (1.1.1) and a
GetMap request works fine.  The metadata ows_srs and ows_resolution
parameters are being used in the map file and these work fine for WMS
requests.  Should I be using version 1.1.0?

 

Any ideas?
