    <p>Hi all,</p>
    <p>Piero is right - what I said applies to the case that grid and
      CRS axes align - which addresses the vast marjotiy of cases in my
      experience. However, OGC coverages (to some extent CIS 1.0, more
      with CIS 1.1) can also address more complex cases (irregular
      grids, grids embedded in higher-dimensional spaces, grids given by
      sensor models, etc.), but naturally description of such grids gets
      increasingly involved.</p>
    <p>To put it differently: parameters omitted use defaults that try
      to keep usage simple.</p>
    <p>My 2 philosophical cents,</p>
    <p>Peter<br>
