hm, when it is about data analysis in addition to display, did you
consider OGC WCS [1] ? As opposed to WMS (which delivers color
imagery for human consumption), a WCS retains original semantics of
values useful for further processing.<br>
Its Core Reference Implementation allows you to store georeferenced
NetCDF data in PostgreSQL.<br>

<div>I'm looking for a faster interface to postGis than the
sloppy code I originally wrote to take it to a csv and then
drive it into the database. I use it for a variety of
purposes, ranging from a web display of weather obs, to a
misued OGC WMS and WFS output, to a potential input for data
assimilation for weather models.</div>

I might be posting to the wrong forum but... would
this work? We aggregate meteorological surface data in
netcdf form, and I'd like to populate a database with
it..<br>
Thanks<br>

Is it gis data (latitude/longitude type stuff)? Or is it
something else (like temperature)?<br>
<br>
How would you like to use it in Postgres? What kind of
sum()'s and where's are you going to write?<br>
