[mapserver-users] WMS T time series data support

[Schepers, Benjamin]

Hi Sushrut,

yes this should be possible.

Here are general information:
http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_time.html

Build index with time-information for your needs (also works for wms):
http://mapserver.org/ogc/wcs_server.html#building-spatio-temporal-tile-indexes


è This is a index-shapefile including a BBOX of every tif-file, the tif-path within the filesystem and another column with the date of the specific file. The date-field needs to be created/filled manually…

I just thought of writing a python script (extending “gdaltindex” commandline-utility), which reads the date from tif-metadata ('TIFFTAG_DATETIME' ) and writes it to the index-shape.


Regards
Ben

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Betreff: [mapserver-users] WMS T time series data support

Hey,

I'm trying to visualise my time series data set using map server.
I have a series of files with file names in the format {coveragename}_{timestamp}.tif.

I need to query a single layer composed of the data from all these files and
see the data by varying the TIME parameter in my GetMap request.

GeoServer provides a tutorial on how to setup an Image Mosaic as time series layer.

Is there way to get the same effect in MapServer.

Regards,
Sushrut Shivaswamy
