Pauline,
I was wondering if you use ncWMS in the context of GODIVA2. I can't see
how ncWMS or a WMS in general would fit in the context of oceanography.
ncWMS is a server written by Jon Blower from the University of Reading.
GODIVA2 is browser interface that is also part of this server. As
far as the integration goes, we only integrated the code for WMS and not
the user interface (godiva). Although, we have added godiva specific
methods such that resources on a WMS enabled THREDDS server can also be
configured to be used by the godiva client.
I'm only a software developer, so I don't know how to answer your
question about WMS and oceanography!
(I'm now responding to your other email) Funnily enough... back in a
previous life of mine, I wrote a WMS handler for the Live Access
Server... ;) Seems like things are merging together, as I believe LAS
can now be configured with the THREDDS catalog.
Yes... It is true - WMS doesn't work particularly well with some of our
datasets (think Argo). These, however, are much more applicable to Web
Feature Service (another OGC standard). I suspect GIS software like
MapServer has that capability (and I believe they can also take in
NetCDF files too?)
I'm not sure if I have answered your question...
Cheers,
-Pauline.

Subject: [thredds] Feedback for ncWMS/TDS integration
Hi all,
It's reporting time for my project and I would appreciate some community
feedback on the ncWMS/TDS *integration*. Is anyone enabling the WMS
feature in their TDS installation? If so, would I be able to get the
URL to your site please? Any comments/experiences/criticisms will, very
much, be welcomed :)
Thanks!
-Pauline.
