WCS Datasets at Unidata

Last Updated: April 9, 2006

All the US (NCEP National Centers for Environmental Prediction) models on motherlode are now available through WCS.

You can start at this THREDDS catalog and look for WCS access:

 http://motherlode.ucar.edu:9080/thredds/idd/models.xml

This functionality will be moved over to 8080 probably later this month.

WCS docs are at:

 http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/docs/WCS/index.html

The supported return formats are:

<supportedFormats>
 <formats>GeoTIFF</formats>
 <formats>GeoTIFFfloat</formats>
 <formats>NetCDF3</formats>
</supportedFormats>

If you choose NetCDF3, you get back a netCDF file using CF-1.
