PetascopeTimeHandling
v16 v17 92 92 To import irregular time series you can either manually insert in `petascopedb` the so-called vector weighting '''coefficients''' of the offset vector along time (see the ''Petascope'' [PetascopeDevGuide dev-guide]) or otherwise use our ''rasgeo'' component to handle the irregular time series directly with absolute time coordinates via the `'--z-coords'` parameter of `rasimport` (see [RasgeoUserGuide user guide] for more details). 93 93 94 To better understand the meaining of (GML) weighting vector [http://schemas.opengis.net/gml/3.3/referenceableGrid.xsd coefficients], the general principle to decode numeric time coordinates is that the time coordinate `T'` is the representation of ` [(c_i*v_t) * T']` time steps (T-CRS UoM) from the epoch of the T-CRS, being `v_t` the scalar norm of the offset vector of the coverage along time and `c_i` the coefficient associated to the `i`-th level in time.94 To better understand the meaining of (GML) weighting vector [http://schemas.opengis.net/gml/3.3/referenceableGrid.xsd coefficients], the general principle to decode numeric time coordinates is that the time coordinate `T'` is the representation of `(c_T' * v_t)` time steps (T-CRS UoM) from the epoch of the T-CRS, being `v_t` the scalar norm of the offset vector of the coverage along time and `c_T'` the coefficient associated to T'.
