<p>Hello QGIS developers,</p>
<p>I'm working for Rasdaman company (<a
class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"
href="http://www.rasdaman.com">www.rasdaman.com</a> -
Opensource Raster database (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"
href="http://www.rasdaman.org">www.rasdaman.org</a>) - created
by Prof. Dr. Peter Baumann). Rasdaman is conformable with OGC
Web Coverage Service (WCS) version 2.0.1 and contributed to
create multiple extensions (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wcs">http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wcs</a>)
and also main contributor of OGC Web Coverage Processing Service
(WCPS - <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wcps">http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wcps</a>).
Rasdaman also contributed to QGIS with this WCPS plugin (<a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/QgsWcpsClient1/">https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/QgsWcpsClient1/</a>
[1]) written in Python.</p>
<p>However, in QGIS latest version 2.8, QGIS native WCS tool only
supports WCS version 1.0.0, 1.1.0, therefore it cannot work with
Rasdaman for requesting WCS 2.0.1 version. What we'd like to do
and ask is:</p>
<p>+ We could use the Python opensource OWSLib (<a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://github.com/earthserver-eu/OWSLib/tree/olcl-wcs-200">https://github.com/earthserver-eu/OWSLib/tree/olcl-wcs-200</a>
and <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://github.com/earthserver-eu/OGC_WCS_tutorial">https://github.com/earthserver-eu/OGC_WCS_tutorial</a>)
which supports WCS version 2.0.1 and WCPS to extend the existing
WCPS QGIS plugin from Rasdaman [1].</p>
<p>+ Is that possible to bring this plugin to be added natively in
QGIS for WCS feature (besides version 1.0.0, 1.1.0) in next QGIS
version? And is this plugin needed to be developed as C++ to be
able to work with QGIS core functionality?</p>
<p>Thanks, </p>
