PLEASE HELP US BY COMPLETING A QUICK SURVEY ON THE USE OF THIS MAP: click here

WCPS is OGC's Earth datacube analytics language, allowing "any query, any time" on spatio-temporal cverages, such as 2D satellite imagery, 3D x/y/t image timeseries and x/y/z geophysical data, 4D x/y/z/t atmospheric data, etc. WCPS is tightly integrated and harmonized with the OGC WCS suite (see separate entry).

WCPS is in active use by international data centers, proven on 2.5+ PB assets and with queries distributed over 1000+ Amazon cloud nodes. Official reference implementation is rasdaman.
