John, Thanks for the request. I've opened an issue on GitHub to keep it on the list: https://github.com/Unidata/thredds/issues/374 I will say that I'm guessing the fact that point features support an almost arbitrary stream of data makes implementing time strides non-trivial--that's likely why it's not in now. (It is a nice idea, though.) Ryan > Dear THREDDS Support, > This is a request to please add support for the "timeStride" parameter for > Point Datasets served via NetCDF Subset Service (NCSS) in TDS. As your > documentation > <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/current/tds/reference/NetcdfSubsetServiceReference.html> > states online, this is currently only available for Grid Datasets. It is a > nice feature when one needs to make a long time series plot without > drinking from the fire hose! :) In particular, I would like to use this for > dynamic online plotting for our various FMRC model outputs. While these are > Grid Datasets, I am querying them at a specific lat/lon point and using the > "Grid as Point Dataset" feature inside NCSS.
