Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

I don't know whether anyone has actually tried this or not. It has come up a number of times in the past. The main hitch is that asynchronous responses are not supported by any of the data access protocols that are available through the TDS. The OGC WCS 1.1 specification has a mechanism to try and deal with asynchronous responses. I'm not sure if there are any implementations that support this mechanism. Our implementation is WCS 1.0 before it was introduced. I'm not sure if it is still in the upcoming WCS 2.0. OPeNDAP has had some discussion of this as well. There was even talk of forming an OPeNDAP working group on this topic but no one has had the time to push it forward (as far as I know). Ethan
