Hi all, I'm writing to propose we add support for a TIME kvp parameter in all WFS versions, mimicking the existing WFS3 support, and taking into account eventual WMS time settings. In WFS3 one can just add a TIME query parameter and filter on that dimension, while the valid time range is exposed in the bbox (it's a space + time one, a novelty as far as WFS is concerned).
The intention is to make it easier to use time support across services in older protocol versions, so if the WMS client is already using TIME to filter data, it can use the same off WFS by just adding a &TIME=... parameter. The parameter would also be exposed in the capabilites document, at the global operations levels, to allow clients to figure out its presence, but for the time being, probably no time range would be exposed (not sure, might not fit budget). In any case, it would be possible to add that later by adding feature type by feature type operation information (which is possible, at least in WFS 1.1 onwards). In the meantime as a work around clients could just look at the WMS caps. Opinions? Feedback? Anyone wants to help? :-D Cheers Andrea == GeoServer Professional Services from the experts!
