Dear All,
I am reading an input from a WCS (a DEM served in output format GeoTiff, 
the server is Deegree). From the WCS response I construct a 
GridCoverage2D as follows:
(removed all error handling etc):
BufferedImage image = image = ImageIO.read(url);
WritableRaster inputRaster = image.getRaster();
        GridCoverageFactory gcFactory = new GridCoverageFactory();
        GridCoverage2D gc = gcFactory.create("inputraster", 
inputRaster,refenv);

The problem is that the returned Geotiff (and therefore the resulting 
GridCoverage2D) has 4 bands (according to gdalinfo):

C:\temp>gdalinfo services.tiff
Warning 1: GeoTIFF tags apparently corrupt, they are being ignored.
Driver: GTiff/GeoTIFF
Files: services.tiff
Size is 32, 23

Band 1 Block=32x8 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Red
Band 2 Block=32x8 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Green
Band 3 Block=32x8 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Blue
Band 4 Block=32x8 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Undefined

I am wondering if it is at all possible to get back to the Geotiff DEM 
values from the Red, Gren, Blue and undefined components of the response 
geotiff. If yes, how? I was under the impression that WCSs should return 
unprocessed (raw) values for a coverage, unless otherwise specified, and 
we did not specify any symbolization on the WCS.

Any hint welcome, including changing the output of the wcs used to a 
different format.
Thanks,
Martin
