Thanks for the link and the explanation. This was exactly what I was after.
This link works beautifully and provides the information we need.
http://www.aifdr.org:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/hazard/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario/coverages/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario.xml
However trying the recipe and going to this one
http://www.aifdr.org:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/hazard/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario/
returns this page
Coverage Store "Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario"
*
Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario<http://www.aifdr.org:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/hazard/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario.html>
But clicking on the above fails. This is what I tried earlier too. However,
replacing the .html in the link with .xml does provide the information you
mention.
Is that the correct procedure and intended?
Anyway, with the template above I should be able to generate the calls we need.
Many thanks
Ole

Subject: Re: [Geoserver-users] How to get metadata such as the native bounding
box for raster data through REST?
You want coverages instead of coveragetypes. The base inspiration for the
names is the WFS vs WCS specs, WFS calls layer categories featureTypes, WCS
calls them coverages.
So
http://www.aifdr.org:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/hazard/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario/coverages/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario.xml
works for me.
I think the GS rest is a bit confusing, as it'll generate some stuff that can
throw you off a bit - I got a bit turned around navigating when putting in the
wrong stuff. But what you can generally do is go a level or two up and see the
links it has under it. So if you go to:
http://www.aifdr.org:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/hazard/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario/
Then it'll point you at its list of coverages:
http://www.aifdr.org:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/hazard/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario/coverages.xml
Which then finally has the proper link with 'coverages'.
It'd probably be better if we didn't generate anything at all if you put in the
wrong word for 'coverages'. It looks like basically it matches anything and
tries to generate the same stuff it would if you put it in correctly. Not sure
if that was by design, or just neglected to turn off one of the paths.

Dear all
I am sure this is a simple problem, but I can't work out how to get the
bounding box of a raster layer through REST.
I tried to mimic the approach used for vector data (see example below), but so
far my attempts have only resulted in minimal data.
Here's the REST call which works for vector data
http://www.aifdr.org:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/boundaries/datastores/Province_Boundaries/featuretypes/Province_Boundaries.xml
And here are my attempts for raster data which don't work (although they do
provide some output which I have included below):
http://www.aifdr.org:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/hazard/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario/coveragetypes/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario.xml
http://www.aifdr.org:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/hazard/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario/coveragestores/Lembang_Earthquake_Scenario.xml
Please help point me to the correct magic.
Cheers and thanks
Ole
