[Geoserver-users] GetFeatureInfo with time range

GeoServer GeoServer User

I've been building a WMS service for time series data following this
tutorial:

http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/tutorials/imagemosaic_timeseries/imagemosaic_timeseries.html

Everything is fine and my GetMap function work well and all the maps are
loaded according to their data. The problem is when I want to use the
GetFeatureInfo function. if I use it to retrieve the feature value of a
point for a single date it works well, but if I try to add the time range
parameter I only get the feature info of the starting date.

I use it in this way:
http://localhost/geoserver/cite/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.1&REQUEST=GetFeatureInfo&FORMAT=image%2Fjpeg&TRANSPARENT=true&QUERY_LAYERS=cite%3A9_S_int&STYLES=ocean&LAYERS=cite%3A9_S_int&INFO_FORMAT=application%2Fjson&FEATURE_COUNT=50&X=50&Y=50&SRS=EPSG%3A4326&WIDTH=101&HEIGHT=101&BBOX=-77.27783203125%2C-46.5380859375%2C-72.83935546875%2C-42.099609375&TIME=2018-08-09/2018-08-11

I've always used the time range in this way for all wms service I used. Now
that I'm trying to build my own WMS service I get this problem. I've enabled
the time dimension setting the presentation value to List.

Here in the following the layer properties retrieved with GetCapabilities:

            <Layer queryable="1" opaque="0">

maxy="-63.79166538715362"/>
                <Dimension name="time" default="current"
units="ISO8601">2018-08-08T00:00:00.000Z,2018-08-09T00:00:00.000Z,2018-08-10T00:00:00.000Z,2018-08-11T00:00:00.000Z,2018-08-14T00:00:00.000Z</Dimension>
                
            </Layer>

Are there other properties I should check to enable the time range
capability?

Dear Thomas,
this is the normal behavior since the getfeatureinfo returns a single value.

What you are looking for is the operation implemented by the GetTimeSeries operation which is implemented by the ncWMS extension:
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/community/ncwms/index.html

See examples here:
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/community/ncwms/index.html#ncwms-gettimeseries-operation

Hello,
Is the extension still the best option today for this use case? Anyone tried to use wcs to pypass getFeatureInfo? I had no luck with it either.
Thanks for the update!
