Coverage_Processor_for_Points Description: This component reads a subset of Station Point Data out of an SQL database. It gets the requested coverage from the query and gets the relevant SQL table and column names from the configuration information. Then it creates an SQL query according to filters, which is executed in the SQL database engine, and the resulting rows are written to a CSV file. Used in WCS GetCoverage Query.
