WCS from multiple netCDF returning only background image

Hi Ed,

Do 'gdalinfo filename.nc'

Then from the prompt try and find a string like this

SUBDATASET_1_NAME=NETCDF:"/my__ta_1982013118.nc":ta

Then do gdalinfo NETCDF:"/my__ta_1982013118.nc":ta

And you will see a bbox string.

So as per my previous email (not being sarcastic here, just don't want
to retype)

You need to put NETCDF:"...":ta in the location element of the dbf for
the shapefile.

I will dig out the python script I did this.  Or alternatively you can
use the perl script.  I used python since I could get the variable name
out in code.

Ping me if you need any help.

Thanks,

Norman

Hi Norman, 

I am really grateful for the work you all have done with MapServer, and
I am
using a pearl script that was posted in the WCS Use Cases (by you, I
believe).

I believe I'm having a problem with creating the tile index.

After running gdaltindex, and then ogrinfo on the shapefile, all of my
layers (or files) look the same:

OGRFeature(RETRO_index):40
  location (String) = RETRO_anthro_nox_2000.0.5x0.5.nc
  POLYGON ((0 0,0 0,0 0,0 0,0 0))


--this is before running the pearl script so no time field yet.

Any idea why all the polygon coordinates are 0??  

Again, thanks for all the help.

-Ed
