Hi Ben:
None of the use cases involve say getting long-time series for a
region - or following an animal track's environment ( a "lagrangean"
extract). The community I deal with needs to do these types of
extracts, and it is precisely in these cases where I feel the OGC
world has not really come to grips with.
So the use case might be " I want to compare present conditions of the
upwelling regions off of the western U.S. with historical long-term
trends and season variations". It is exactly these use cases that I
can do well with OpeNDAP/netcdf.

Hi all,
I will put these onto the GALEON wiki as soon as I get a chance,
but, in the meantime, I've listed below a relatively concise set of
use cases that I believe capture the requirements for many of the
different data types we deal with in the metoceans (Fluid Earth
Sciences?) community.
