Hi Aaron - with netCDF files I’ve used a postGIS store to index the data and then create an imagemosaic store.
I’ve been meaning to test a very large mosaic - which needs some care to build [1]. My process is described after Daniele’s comments - it works fine for a few hundred tiles but not for many thousands with interesting reference systems :) But in short, yes, and with netCDF, and with a world file for each (although Geoserver will create it’s own indexing parts - so the data directory needs to be writable by tomcat. We link files from our RO filesystem into someplace on the geoserver host to enable this) Cheers Adam [1] https://sourceforge.net/p/geoserver/mailman/message/35736574/ -- Dr. Adam Steer Earth systems data service specialist National Computational Infrastructure Leonard Huxley Building, Mills Road The Australian National University Acton ACT 2600 Australia adam.st...@anu.edu.au +61 2 6125 1413 http://nci.org.au > On 7 Apr 2017, at 12:44 am, Jason Newmoyer <ja...@newmoyergeospatial.com> > wrote: > > As long as the tiles have geographic metadata (world file, geotiff, etc) then > ImageMosaic will automatically index them with a shapefile.
