TDS folks,
Is there a CDM validation service for Discrete Sampling Geometry CDM
featureTypes?
(profile, time series, etc)
The CDM Validation service:
http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/cdmvalidator/validate.html
linked from the TDS page:
https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/TDS.html#CDM_Coordinate_System_Validator
seems to be from TDS 4.0, and validates grids but not discrete
sampling geometry.
The "download the latest cdmvalidation.war file" link points to:
ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/thredds/4.0/cdmvalidator.war
ftp> cd /pub/thredds/4.0
ftp> ls
-rwxrw-r-- 1 ftp ftp 3939 Aug 31 2009 CHANGES.txt
-rwxrw-r-- 1 ftp ftp 1177 Aug 31 2009 README.txt
-rwxrw-r-- 1 ftp ftp 14677873 Mar 24 2009 cdmvalidator.war
drwxrwxr-x 2 ftp ftp 512 Jul 20 2009 old
drwxrwxr-x 2 ftp ftp 512 Jul 22 2009 rc
drwxrwxr-x 2 ftp ftp 512 Jul 30 2009 test
-rwxrw-r-- 1 ftp ftp 23320016 Aug 31 2009 thredds.war
and I can't find a similar war file in the thredds/4.3 area:
ftp> cd /pub/thredds/4.3/4.3.15
ftp> ls
-rwxrw-r-- 1 ftp ftp 29392690 Dec 18 19:30 thredds.war
-rwxrw-r-- 1 ftp ftp 32 Dec 18 19:30 thredds.war.md5
-rwxrw-r-- 1 ftp ftp 40 Dec 18 19:30 thredds.war.sha1
If this doesn't exist, it would be great to put it on the "to-do" list.
I know the NetCDF-Java ToolsUI route of testing these feature types
(outlines, for example in the "will my dataset work?" section of:
<https://github.com/asascience-open/ncSOS/wiki>
but a web-based service would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Rich
