Below is a catalog we use to access and aggregate an OpeNDAP (pydap) server at NCDDC. Dont know if this is what you are looking for. It is what you can find at http://oceanwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/thredds/WCOS/temp/BEA/catalog.html .

Simon,

This sounds extremely useful and I'd love to give it a try.

Can you please tell us what the "trivial" changes are to NetCDF-Java?

And do you have a real-life example of the catalog below that works
with publicly available OpenDAP data?

Thanks,
Rich

Hi Pauline,
The following works ok for us (as an example - non-essential details removed):

I'm not sure if its all documented somewhere - I worked it out the slow way by poking around in the netcdf java code and hunting through the archives of the thredds mailing list. There are also some trivial changes you need to make to the code (in netcdf-java) to filter out some unwanted artifacts created when the scan picks through the html from the OpenDAP server - otherwise you end up with some strange, non-functional things in your catalog. Maybe there is a better way to do the above?
By way of introduction, we want this sort of catalog to work as part of a thredds metadata harvester I'm adding to GeoNetwork which produces ISO19115 metadata records and ISO19119 records for thredds services. Its nearly at the stage where it is working reliably but there are a few more issues I need to solve and I'm still learning about Thredds :-) 

Cheers and I hope this helps,
Simon

Subject: [thredds] Running THREDDS on top of old OPeNDAP servers

Hi all,
I'm figuring out ways to serve data using THREDDS on top of old OPeNDAP servers. I'm aware that you can configure datasets based on a URL, but 
that's for a single file... (correct me if I'm wrong!)  However, are
there ways to apply to an directory?  Sort of like a datasetScan +
filters for a directory URL?  When poking through the THREDDS catalog
XSD, there's a crawlableDatasetImpl element. Is that the sort of things 
I need to look at?

Thanks,

-Pauline.
