[las_users] How to configure time axis with ISO 8601 datetime strings?
Hi All,
I have a dataset whose time axis includes ISO 8601 datetime strings (e.g. "2010-12-21T00:00:00Z") that is not displaying in LAS. I get an error:
**ERROR: illegal limits: CRW_HOTSPOT does not exist at T=-6.3143E+10
Axis extremes are T=0.5:1042.5
This error shows axis extremes (0.5:1042.5) that use only the time variable's indices. That plus the strange T=-6.3143E+10 seems to suggest that LAS is not understanding the format of the time axis strings. How can I tell it that the axis is using ISO 8601 datetime strings? When configuring this dataset in LAS, I used this but I tried various permutations of the units setting:
<time-t-dhw type="t" units="days" display_lo="2000-12-02" display_hi="2010-12-13" default="last">
<arange start="2000-12-02" size="1042" step="3.5" />
</time-t-dhw>
And here is the link to the dataset in our THREDDS Data Server (TDS):
http://oos.soest.hawaii.edu/thredds/idd/satellite.html?dataset=dhw
An additional wrinkle to getting this dataset into LAS is that the time axis is bi-weekly. Will LAS limit the list of available days in the pull-down to those that are actually contained in the dataset?, or will there be a lot of days listed for which there are no data and the user will get an error?
Thanks,
