Hi,
right now DimensionInfo and the code handling dimensions uses dimensions
values which are dependent on the data type:
* for time it's "current"
* for elevation is the minimum
* for custom dimensions it's the first value in the list
We would like to have this user configurable instead, with the following
settings:
* min value (dynamically picked)
* max value (dynamically picked)
* no default (and throw exception if not specified)
* user provided (the admin will provide a static value in this case).
The reasons for this are multiple:
* better flexibility in configuration
* for data that has multiple dimensions enabled, give the admin a chance to
set a group of default values that actually identify one vector
feature/raster granule, the defaults often results in an empty map instead
The change would be relatively small, not sure if it's proposal worthy, you
let me know
Feedback appreciated
Cheers
Andrea
