I have a large number of grib2 files representing the same grid for different times. I want to be able to select an arbitrary amount of them and merge them into a single grid with time dimension. That would be uploaded to Geoserver and then I’d pull them down into my World Wind application. Ideally the workflow would be something like select the times you want in a java list, merge the time grids into a single grib or geotiff or whatever, upload the coverage to Geoserver and then pull them down as layers into World Wind.
For a snapshot of the tools I’m using now or have access to
World Wind
GDAL java bindings
Geotools java libraries
Geoserver 2.7
I’m trying to avoid using command line tools like wgrib2 or cdo since this is supposed to be a user friendly application.
