[Geoserver-users] GeoServer and Google and Custom CoverageStores

Hello,

I was finally able to have Geoserver load my custom coverage store and I
see it displayed in the WCS Config Screen under CoverageStores.

However, I don't see Geoserver ever making a call to my plugin. I don't
see it ever retrieving my GridCoverageReader and iterating through it.

Can anyone shine any light on that kind of scenario?

Also, I am trying to integrate Geoserver with Google Earth and NASA
WorldWind and I am confused as to the proper URL I should be using to
access the WMS portion of Geoserver.

Thanks,

Ronak Patel

Ciao Ronak,
can you be more specific about the nature of your plugin?

Simone.

A month or so ago i had been playing with similar stuff; adding google maps
as a geoserver datasource. My idea was to develop a wms plugin which works
similar to mosaic plugin. This was developed under Geoserver 1.6.4. Here are
the results:

1. My plugin shown under Coverage Plugins List:

2. A new coverage store:

3. A new coverage:

4. Sample call to GeoServer gives this image:

call:

The plugin is under "paused" development, but it's showing nice results.

Interesting, could be a nice example. But it cannot be
more than that I fear, by grabbing data from Google
Maps from anything other than a browser you're violating
the gmaps service conditions (at least, unless there is
any way to buy the service and legally use it from
a desktop or server application).

Cheers

Yes, this probably violates the service conditions(?). But i did it for non
commercial use and
i can remove it if google says to.

but what AIR? that's more desktop than browser & google actually supplies an API for that.
