WMS Spatio temporal search

[Bonnie Stewart]

I spent a little while playing with a TIME filtered WMS which I connected to from ArcGIS, which doesn't support the TIME parameter - I ended up setting up a little ASP script to append my default TIME parameter onto the WMS request that ArcGIS sends. If you're interested in going down that path I can give you details of the script - it's not particularly fancy though :)

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] WMS Spatio temporal search


Hi,

I followed the instruction to set TIME and SPATIAL search from this URL.

   http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/WCSServerFormatHowTo 

The Filter with TIME parameter works fine.  My problem is that NASA ESG portal (http://esg.gsfc.nasa.gov/) does not set the &TIME parameter in its QUERY_STRING (File-Load View-OGC WMS Server).   The results is a blank image 

I want to find a way to set a default value for the TIME parameter.

Regards,
Denis
