Hi,

This is probably a really simple question but why can't I import the following WCS?

Endpoint: http://vhirl-dev.csiro.au/thredds/wcs/dem/busselton-final-meta.nc
GetCap: http://vhirl-dev.csiro.au/thredds/wcs/dem/busselton-final-meta.nc?service=WCS&version=1.0.0&request=GetCapabilities
DescribeCap: http://vhirl-dev.csiro.au/thredds/wcs/dem/busselton-final-meta.nc?service=WCS&version=1.0.0&request=DescribeCoverage&coverage=elevation

I'm getting the following error when attempting to add a WCS layer (after connecting, when selecting the coverage name and pressing Add):
WCS provider: Cannot get test dataset.
Raster layer: Provider is not valid (provider: wcs, URI: cache=AlwaysCache&crs=&format=GeoTIFF&identifier=elevation&url=http://vhirl-dev.csiro.au/thredds/wcs/dem/busselton-final-meta.nc

Could it be because QGIS doesn't seem to be picking up a CRS from the WCS?

I'm running QGIS on Windows 7:

QGIS version2.2.0-Valmiera

Thanks in advance for any help,
