WSClient - Select output format based on coverage's dimensions in WCS GetCoverage tab

[Bang Pham Huu]

In WCS GetCoverage tab, default output format is GML. It can be enhanced to be more practical by default:

• If the result is 2D: output format is set to TIFF
• Otherwise: output format is set to netCDF

I would say for 2D jpeg is also a good candidate. Could we add a config file, like wcs-client.properties where this can be set, along with other options (such as disabling certain tabs)?

The file can be stored in rasdaman/etc, next to petascope.properties, read by petascope and served to the wcs-client.

wcs-client.properties in /opt/rasdaman/etc

I also have same thought as Vlad. It is more flexible to configure WSClient's features (at least with enable / disable).

[Dimitar Misev]

I'd avoid having a configuration file unless absolutely necessary.

jpeg would only work if the data is 2D and char, other cell types will not work. Also I think it doesn't embed geo information.
