Description
The WCS time demo service at:
http://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/wcs?SERVICE=WCS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities
has dates in the mod09.dbf file that look like:
IMGDATE (String) = 2002-153
Unfortunately date comparisons in this service do not seem to be working properly and on review of the maptime.c services (for MapServer 6 at least) it seems that YYYY-DDD is not a supported date format now. Instead I believe this is being interpreted as YYYY-MM and perhaps values over 12 are being treated as month 0 or something like that.
This is breaking the date selection on the WCS service. My question is *should* MapServer support YYYY-DDD date formats or should the time indexes for that service just be reimplemented in a different date format?
I would be willing to reformat the time indexes if that is what is needed.
