Aloha TDS Community,
When testing our TDS WMS results in various clients, I find that the images are
always blank (all white) regardless of what variable or palette I've tried thus
far. I've only been using the default palettes that come with TDS. My suspicion
is that the TDS WMS is not configured by default to scale the data values of
the variable from 0-255?, and that the default palettes are therefore
inapplicable to my data as a result. For instance, if my variable has values
ranging from -1.0 to +1.0, then a palette defining colors that expect values
ranging 0-255 won't help.
If this is true, then I can define my own palette and specify this in
threddsConfig.xml. But is there a way to set the palette on a dataset and/or
variable basis?, or will this palette appear for all datasets served through my
TDS?
Lastly, is there some way to tell the TDS WMS to scale the values to 0-255 in
ogcMetaXML?, and can you specify what range of values to scale to 0-255 (i.e.
leaving out a no-data value like -999, etc.)?
Mahalo!,
John
