Thank you for your reply, I’m sorry I didn’t my make question clear. In which cases a GeoServer (2.13.0) WCS service can produce a GML output?
We have tried this with several coverages. But when the outputFormat parameter is defined as “application/gml+xml”, GeoServer responses always with an error “format application/gml+xml is not supported for this coverage”. We would like to use the feature in debugging and checking purposes. -- Ismo Lahtinen Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE) Lähettäjä: Andrea Aime [mailto:[email protected]] Lähetetty: 15. helmikuuta 2019 15:32 Vastaanottaja: Lahtinen Ismo Kopio: [email protected] Aihe: Re: [Geoserver-users] WCS and GML On Wed, Feb 13, 2019 at 4:05 PM Lahtinen Ismo <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hello! The WCS capabilities response in GeoServer version 2.13.0 includes "application/gml+xml" as a supported output format. However, GML is not listed as an output format in the documentation (https://docs.geoserver.org/2.13.0/user/services/wcs/outputformats.html). True indeed. Pull requests to fix the documentation welcomed, see quickfix approach: https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/docguide/quickfix.html Also, it seems that when creating a new WCS layer GML is not listed as an available format. Those lists only control the generation of WCS 1.0 capabilities, they have no other effect as far as I remember. Quite likely, the GUI controls are not using the plugin system to get a list of the available formats... patches welcomed, if anyone still cares about WCS 1.0! In which cases GML can be chosen as an output format of a WCS layer? I'm going to venture and say, almost never? The format is text based and extracting anything but the smallest set of pixels would result in a very large output. I can think of two legit use cases (everybody feel free to add more): * debugging purposes, since one can read the values of the pixels in clear text, along with bounds and the like * "bbox based raster GetFeatureInfo", getting all values in a given bbox for a tabular display in a client Cheers Andrea == GeoServer Professional Services from the experts!
