hm, when it is about data analysis in addition to display, did you consider OGC
WCS [1] ? As opposed to WMS (which delivers color imagery for human
consumption), a WCS retains original semantics of values useful for further
processing.
Its Core Reference Implementation allows you to store georeferenced NetCDF data
in PostgreSQL.
