To create a WCS service for cube data, just copy the netCDF-CF files into the provider folder.

  • Each file becomes a coverage.
  • Each variable becomes a field.

This is by far the easiest way to create a WCS service. Examples are testprovider which comes with the installation package, and NASA which serves some datasets downloaded from NASA.]]
