Ben, Jeff,
To have the services accessible and usable through a Brokering framework
would be great, indeed !
Cheers,
Stefano
Jeff,
Thi is a terrific idea. One suggestion I have is to build it so the
processing services can be set up in a brokering layer -- that is, so
the input datasets can be accessed via web services and the output can
be served via web services. I don't mean that this should be the
only way to implement the nco processing, rather just keep it in mind
so it's relatively easy to set up such a three tier architecture for
the nco processing.
Thanks for considering it.

Hi all,
I saw the recent posts about NCO services:
I know this isn't an NCO list, but I belong to enough lists
and groups, don't feel like joining more, and am lazy. There
has for quite some time been discussion about adding server
side functions, and there are several possible solutions
presently offered. But a relatively simple possibility for
some of the basic operations that people want to do, and with
a tool that people already use and is scriptable, is to use
NCO. Has any ever thought of tried to set up NCO as a web
service? Just thinking.
This got me thinking about adding these kinds of services to
RAMADDA. I've started with the weighted average, e.g.:
http://ramadda.org/repository/entry/show/Home/RAMADDA+Examples/Geo-Data/Gridded+Data/gfs80.nc?entryid=b835f612-5975-468f-86af-16e1a8e25219&output=nco.ncwa

This will create a new netcdf file and return it to the user. If
you are logged in you can also publish the results back to ramadda.
This was a Sunday morning project so it is real new and there
isn't any documentation yet but I'll be firming it up this week
and adding support for the other operators.
If you're unfamiliar with the NetCDF services provided by ramadda
it also supports grid subsetting, time series extraction from
grids, metadata harvesting, opendap and IDV-based server-side
visualizations. Just look in the Data menu on the above page.
If there are any folks that are interested in these kind of
services drop me a line - I'd like to hear what else might be needed.
-Jeff
