Re: [Geoserver-devel] Removing ASCII grid output format from WCS?

2023-06-12 Thread Andrea Aime
Hi Richard,
mind, we are talking about the ability to produce a ASCII Grid in WCS
output,
not about the ability to read one and create a layer out of it.

Cheers
Andrea

2023-06-12 Thread Richard Duivenvoorde via Geoserver-devel

FYI:

I've had users which because of the simplicity to create them (when you use 
Fortran als programming language...), used them to create time series for 
(dispersion) models.
So that could be an argument?

I've had a  lot of fun setting these up for Geoserver...
(so I would not vote for complete code removal, unless I was the only user for 
ascii grids :-))

(now moving to netcdf...)

I would go for the hard removal.
We need to concentrate our resources on things that matter and I don't
think anyhow would commit suicide over the remova of Ascii Grid format from
GeoServer.

[Geoserver-devel] Removing ASCII grid output format from WCS?

2023-06-12 Thread Andrea Aime
Hi all,
with this mail I want to discuss the eventual removal of the ASCII grid
output format from the WCS codebase.

The output format produces the classic ESRI ASCII grid, a text based export
format suitable only for single banded raster data.
I was discussing with Simone about it, and we are skeptical about its
current usefulness:

   - Limited functionality, due to single band support
   - Inefficient format, and inefficient implementation (dumps to file
   first, streams out later, inviting timeouts)
   - Difficult to discover MIME,  it's reported as "application/x-gzip"
   along the output formats
   - Unaware of significant usage in the wild
   - The GML grid output format provides a better alternative, still human
   readable, but human readable and can be streamed

If you disagree, we'd like to hear why.
If you agree, what option should we follow? Two ideas:

   - Simple code removal, not worth spending extra effort
   - Migration to community module, to provide soft landing for those that
   might have been using it

Thoughts?

Cheers
Andrea

Good day developers

If you have any fixes that you want included in the upcoming 2.22.4
GeoServer, 1.22.3 GeoWebCache or 28.4 GeoTools releases, please make sure
you have backported them and updated the fix version in the ticket before
Friday afternoon (UTC) which is when Jody and I plan to start the next
release cycle.

Thank you

In recent versions of geoserver, if you include metadata extension but you 
don’t have a metadata.properties file then geoserver doesn’t start up.
