WCS bounding box co-ordinates
-----------------------------
Key: GEOS-3225
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3225
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Components: WCS
Environment: 1.7.5 - windows Vista
Reporter: Jonathan
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Hi,
I'm not 100% on what the bounding-box co-ordinate pairing is supposed to be with WCS, but I've noticed what appears to be a bug/ anomoly/inconsistancy. I was experimenting trying to figure out what the bbox-co-ordinate pairing was supposed to be.
This is the URL:
http://<host>:8080/geoserver/wcs?request=GetCoverage&version=1.1.1&identifier=j2:Wales_SE&SERVICE=wcs&FORMAT=image/geotiff&boundingbox=<COORDS HERE>,urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326&store=true
Getting data from a geotiff with this WCS description for it's co-ords:
<ows:WGS84BoundingBox>
<ows:LowerCorner>-6.049181897740217 50.64844692563326</ows:LowerCorner>
<ows:UpperCorner>-2.282897727534845 52.738431760168986</ows:UpperCorner>
</ows:WGS84BoundingBox>
The problem is, there doesn't seem to be any error checking to confirm the E/W is correct.
If I use these co-ords for my boundingbox:
51,-3,52,-4 - (those co-ords are bottom right and top-left) it returns a image that does not show those co-ordinates. It does NOT return an error saying the longitude is the wrong way around, which does happen with the latitude.
The correct co-ord pairing appears to be:
51,-4,52,-3 (bottom left and top right) - and this does return the correct area.
