Hello Devon,

Directory walking is part of the harvesting process, which is at the moment implemented inside the ImageMosaicReader (see the inner class HarvestedResource). In the API, there is a separate MosaicHarvester interface, as well as a very light ImageMosaicReader with all the logic inside the ImageMosaic class. With this API, we can either do one of these two thing to customise harvesting: 1. Write our own reader and use all the mosaic functionality through the ImageMosaic class. 2. Write our own implementation of MosaicHarvester for a customised harvesting process and plug it into the ImageMosaicReader.

Does that make any sense?

Kind Regards
Niels

For my own part, Niels maybe you could throw in some small examples of how these API changes would be used in practice to accomplish some of the items in the description? For example, how could I customize the directory walking with the new API?

Thanks,
Devon

    Hi all,

    Just noticed that there wasn't a dedicated email thread for this
    proposal and figured I'd kick one off since I've also been
    involved in it.

    
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/wiki/Refactor-ImageMosaic-for-extensibility

    I think the description gives a pretty good rationale for what we
    want to accomplish with this proposal and I'd like to solicit any
    discussion, advice, feedback, etc. from everyone.

    Cheers,
    Devon
