Hi all,
So far in my tests with WCS, I was using variable name as coverage name or limited once coverage per variable:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/Multidimensional+WCS
But now I want to show a dataset and its variables. For instance, a dataset XYZ can contain 4 variables (temperature, salinity etc). Are there any solutions how this could be represented using the WCS specification?
Cheers,
Adit

The WCS specs allows for multidimensional coverages, but Geoserver
is not able to handle them, we don't have the right data structures
at the moment. The above page tries to summarize the interest
of various parties in supporting the nD coverages, but
we don't have a solution right now.
If you can wait, I do believe we'll start seeing something in
the next months.

In terms of representing such an animal with the WCS spec, check out the
description of "domainSet" and "rangeSet". Once Geoserver implements nD,
this is how it should be advertised.
