Hi all,

I have an existing implementation of a BaseGDALGridCoverage2DReader that 
supports HDF5 images through the GDAL library. (It depends on custom metadata, 
so it's not usable in a broader context.) The only downside is that it can only 
read one of the bands in the HDF5 image file, while GDAL actually supports any 
band.

Using this reader, I managed to used the Image Mosaic plugin to create an HDF5 
based mosaic out of multiple HDF5 files, which is than exported by geoserver. 
In fact, the implementation turned out to be pretty simple, so thanks for that!

I noticed that geotools 10 should from now on also support exposing the other 
bands in the image. So I implemented some of the new methods like 
GridCoverageReader:getGridCoverageNames() to expose more coverages inside the 
single image. These however do not seem to show up in Geoserver. Can anyone 
give me some pointers about what should certainly be implemented for this to 
work? (I hope this is not a geoserver question, as it seems that it is the 
imagemosaic module that should notice that there are multiple coverages 
available.)

I already noticed that the experimental NetCDFReader also implements 
StructuredGridCoverage2DReader, but it seems that this would make my 
implementation a lot more complex.

thanks,
