Dear developers, I would like to create (and then maintain) two new community modules, gs-gdal-wcs and gs-gdal-wps, whose purpose will be to leverage the gdal_translate utility to support additional output formats in the WCS and WPS services.
In practice, what I aim to do is to port the OGR extension to the raster world: - the conversion will be done by first dumping the coverage to disk in GeoTIFF format and then invoking gdal_translate, passing the dumped coverage as input - users will be able to configure the GDAL formats they want to support in a gdal_translate.xml file (almost identical to the ogr2ogr.xml configuration file), where they can also customize the creation options to pass to the gdal_translate command - changes to the configuration file will be automatically detected by a watcher and applied, no need to restart The initial implementation is going to be very similar to the OGR extension, with a significant amount of repeated code: perhaps at a later time it could be advisable to factor out the shared logic into a separate module both extensions would then be based off. The WCS module is already in good shape and I will submit a PR soon. Any feedback is appreciated! -- Best regards, Stefano Costa == GeoServer Professional Services from the experts!
