| 121 | | Starting with version 9.0, rasdaman is official OGC WCS Core Reference Implementation, and candidate reference implementation for all WCS extensions. Further, rasdaman is [http://geossregistries.info/geosspub/resource_details_ns.jsp?compId=urn:geoss:csr:resource:urn:uuid:e8d4eb7b-4681-4f71-9e34-0f78cf10ce92 listed in the GEOSS Component and Service Registry]. |
| | 123 | '''Next-Generation Geo Raster Server'''. |
| | 124 | From simple geo imagery services up to complex analytics, rasdaman provides the whole spectrum of functionality on spatio-temporal raster data - both regular and irregular grids. |
| | 125 | And it does so with an unprecedented performance and scalability, as recent scientific benchmarks show. |
| | 126 | To leverage this enabling technology, users do not necessarily have to learn new interfaces: rasdaman [wiki:Clients integrates] smoothly with R, !OpenLayers, Leaflet, NASA !WorldWind, GDAL, MapServer, ESRI ArcGIS, and many more. |
