ncss query - polygon instead of lat long box


I'm curious if there is a way to query the NDFD or other layers in the thredds server with a customized polygon instead of a rectangular lat long box? Thanks!

Solution

  • Unfortunately, no. The work-around would be to make a request for the box that bounds your polygon of interest, then do the subset to the polygon locally. Depending on what tools you are using, there may be libraries out there to help you do it. Failing that, the math to do it is not too awful.
