Re: Mercator Projection

yes, we support mercator projection. you should probably test test the
WCS with that projection, though, but i suspect it will be ok.

Hi John:

In the work we are doing with the NOAA IOOS program office, we may
have to be able to provide data that is in a Mercator projection  (i
prefer just giving a lat-lon grid and letting the client side
re-project the data but we may not have that option.). This would be
through the WCS service in the TDS, using netcdf as the file format.
I believe TDS allows for some projections, is that correct?  Is
mercator one of them?  If not, since I believe there are some
projections, there might be some easy hooks for someone like Bob
Simons to add that.

Basically any info you can provide would be helpful.
