Hi:
I finally got the ImageMosaic plugin to work, mwahahahaaaaa....
It turns out that the "java.lang.NullPointerException" reported in a
previous post is due to a missing .properties file, which I guess is
mandatory. For now I tried to update the values in it by hand, but I
am not certain about the efectiveness of this approach. For example,
what is the Levels property in there? I would gladly accept any
explanations about the role of the .properties files.
Other than that the plugin seems to be functioning fine. Attached is a
preliminary result of my attempts, so excuse the misaligned data, at
least is showing something....

You can do the same thing with gdaltindex, if you already have gdal installed.
For example, the following command line will create an index shapefile
for all of your geotiffs:gdaltindex -tileindex location test *.tif
Here it creates a test.shp with a field named "location" (the exact
name is needed by the Imagemosaic plugin I believe), for all images
with .tif extension in the current directory.There's a caveat: if the shapefile already exists, it will append
polygons to it. So if you don't want to duplicate tiles, list only the
*.tif files that are missing an entry in the shapefile.Anyway, I found it to be an easy way to create the indexes. Easy is good.
