[postgis-users] Problems loading norwegian climate data to PostGIS

[Thiemo Kellner]

Hi

I am new to spacial data processing. For a project of mine I try to  
load swedish climate data in to my PostGIS installation running/using  
an openSUSE Tumbleweed installation.

I downloaded the data from  
https://thredds.met.no/thredds/catalog/senorge/seNorge2/archive/PREC1m/catalog.html?dataset=senorge/seNorge2/archive/PREC1m/seNorge_v2_0_PREC1m_grid_1957_2015.nc and tried to load it  
by

function load() {
     _FILE=${1}
     _TABLE=$(basename -s .nc ${_FILE})
     nice -n 19 raster2pgsql -d \
                  -C \
                  -r \
                  -P \
                  -R \
                  -F \
                  -I \
                  -M \
                  -Y \
                  ${_FILE} \
                  nc.${_TABLE} | \
                    nice -n 19 psql -d norge -U norge -p 6543
}
load seNorge_v2_0_PREC1m_grid_1957_2015.nc

I could not see any error, however, the file is a good 700 MB size but  
the data load took only a few seconds. If I query the data, it seems  
to me that only a fragment of data was loaded:

select ST_MetaData(rast) as meta, -- Kind of a serialisation of the  
specifics below
        ST_PixelHeight(rast) As pixheight,
        ST_PixelWidth(rast) As pixhwidth,
        ST_IsEmpty(rast) as is_empty,
        ST_MemSize(rast) as space_used_in_B,
        ST_BandMetaData(rast, 1) as band_1_meta_data,
        ST_BandMetaData(rast, 708) as band_708_meta_data,
        ST_MemSize(rast)/1024 as space_used_in_KB,
        ST_GeoReference(rast, 'ESRI') As esri_ref,
        ST_GeoReference(rast, 'GDAL') As gdal_ref
   from nc.senorge_v2_0_prec1m_grid_1957_2015;

Please note I transposed the result of the query to better fit into the mail.

Can anyone enlighten me?

Kind regards

Thiemo
