Hello,

i have a question concerning the raster data merge behaviour of the image 
mosaic plugin in combination with temporal wms requests. Here's my setup:

Geoserver 2.6.2 running in a Tomcat 7 container on ubuntu 12 serverconfigured 
image mosaic plugin with geotiff's and postgis, as suggested in the 
tutorialgeotiffs are added every 7 minutes and are valid within this interval 
(i have a datefrom and dateto timestamp in the database)Layer is configured to 
use time dimension with presentation set to "continuous interval" and default 
value "Use the biggest domain value"Merge behaviour is set to "FLAT"

The time support docs say that i can plot several measurements (in this case a 
raster of rain amounts) over a certain time window: "you might have a single 
dataset with weather observations collected over
 time and choose to plot a single day’s worth of observations." 
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wms/time.html


So i expected geoserver to somehow compose a picture of several raster files 
when i query the wms for an one hour interval. Instead geoserver returns the 
first geotiff that meets the lower end time of my requested interval.


Is it possible to configure the geoserver in a way, that it will accumulate all 
raster data for the requested interval within a single layer, or did i 
missunderstand the capabilities of time support and the image mosaic plugin? 
And are there other Merge behaviours than FLAT?

Thanks in advance,

Marc Schenke
