1. WCS :: OGC Bonn 2005-nov-09 Some GALEON Results for WCS OGC, Bonn, 2005-nov-09 Peter Baumann International University Bremen, rasdaman GmbH email: p.baumann@iu-bremen.de

2. 2 WCS :: OGC Bonn 2005-nov-09 IUB @ GALEON Implementation of a WCS server based on a raster DBMS XML / SOAP Intermediate results Specification of GetCoverage coverage data result List of editorial change requests Issues Decision WCS.RWG: incorporate in WCS 1.1

3. 3 WCS :: OGC Bonn 2005-nov-09 GetCoverage Evaluation Model select source coverage perform spatial subsetting perform temporal subsetting perform range subsetting (*) perform spatial scaling into result bbox (*) perform reprojection into target CRS (+) perform data format encoding transmit resulting byte string to target location (*) including interpolation as specified (+) may involve implicit range interpolation and, hence, accuracy loss, depending on the format chosen discussion appreciated

4. 4 WCS :: OGC Bonn 2005-nov-09 Issues (1) Q: If I have a coverage with temporal domain { [0:3], [7:10]}, and I select T=5 – what is the result? What if T=20? A: in both cases, an exception has to be reported. Q: Is there any scaling / interpolation along the time axis? A: Currently not foreseen. Proposal: make "grid" (ie, cell/pixel/voxel/…) coordinates visible to clients geo2cell-coord cell-indexed coverage

5. 5 WCS :: OGC Bonn 2005-nov-09 Issues (2) Q: the correspondence of BoundingBox and SpatialSubset in a GetCoverage request is not clear. Q: When is dimension of result coverage reduced wrt. original coverage? A: Currently not foreseen, however considered useful. x y t

6. 6 WCS :: OGC Bonn 2005-nov-09 Side effect of coverage result spec: good basis for value-added services Under work: WCPS= Web Coverage Processing Service = coverage retrieval & processing expression language Declarative = describe what you want, not how to compute based on model & functionality of WCS WCPS

7. 7 WCS :: OGC Bonn 2005-nov-09 WCPS language expressions independent from encoding Example: tiff( C.red + C.nir ) KVP encoding: WCPS language + entities where needed Example: http://myhost/myservice ? SERVICE=WCPS & VERSION=0.0.1 & REQUEST=tiff(C.red%20+%20C.nir) & EXCEPTIONS=application/vnd.ogc.se_xml XML encoding: XML Schema Example: WCPS Concepts
