Hello,

This is how Postgresql makes the data available. PostgresQL stores the information about the location of the geotiffs and the timestamp associated with them:

pm25_monthly=# \d pm25_monthly_global
                           Table "public.pm25_monthly_global"
  Column  |            Type             | Modifiers
----------+-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
oid | integer | default nextval('pm25_monthly_seq'::regclass)
 rundate      | timestamp with time zone    |
 datetime    | timestamp with time zone    |
 location      | text                                        |
 timezone    | timestamp without time zone |
 the_geom   | geometry(MultiPolygon,4326) |
Indexes:
    "pm25_monthly_global_oid_key" UNIQUE CONSTRAINT, btree (oid)


The 'location' field simply gives the full path to the relevant geotiff on the file system. And, I define the index in the mapfile:
