Hello,

I've read all the recent email postings on the topic of SOS and GetOberservation. But I didn't find an answer as to how it suppose to work.

Like the others, my sos-test.map is essentially the example posted in the how-tos section with a few minor changes (see below). GetCapabilities and DescribeSensor work just fine. But I'm not sure what I got back from GetObservation is right.

My GotObservation request is
http://sggate.arc.nasa.gov:9518/cgi-bin/mapserv-4.10.0?MAP=/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/sos/sos-test.map&SERVICE=SOS&REQUEST=GetObservation&Offering=AMS001&observedproperty=AMS%20Fire&version=0.0.31
I got back this
<om:ObservationCollection gml:id="AMS001" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengeospatial.net/om http://schemas.opengis.net/om.xsd"/>

My questions are
1) What do I suppose to get back using the 3 GetOberservation examples (listed in the how-tos SOS)? 2) I suspect that I need to assign a real shapefile or database to DATA in the LAYER section. Am I right?
3) Is there a working SOS server out there that I can use as a reference?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Jian
