[Geotools-gt2-users] Tips for implementing a WCS client

[Britton J (AT) <jbr...@gl...>]

Hi,

I need a WCS client and I understand that GeoTools doesn't currently have anyway.  I've been using something I've thrown together myself, which I can use to carry out GetCapabilities, DescribeCoverage and GetCoverage (although I can't deal with the result yet unless it's a basic image like PNG).

However, I want to make my client more in line with what currently exists in GeoTools (like WMS).  I was wondering if there is a guide somewhere or a diagram explaining the architecture of GeoTools WMS that I can use as a basis for my WCS client.  I've been browsing the source code and don't really understand the relationships between some of the classes or how requests are handled.

Any advice would be appreciated.  I'm not out to create a fully functional client (at least not yet), just one that works.

Thanks,

Jon
