Hi Richard,

It seems to me this should be possible using:

1. Two tables:
- Points
- Measurements (Timestamp, Measured attribute)

2.  A view (Points LEFT JOIN Measurements)


What would be the actual result in your case (eg in the case of 2 points with 
100 measurements each)?

That would be 2 records/features isn't it? With..., I dont know, the last join?
OR 200 records (which is the actual way QGIS/GIS is handling this?

Note that I'm not talking about storage here.
I'm looking in a way, the temporal controller (or something else) can 
(separately from the geometries) request the timestamp/value data.
For example: FIRST requests all Locations of Sensors,
Then (based on the status of some (temporal) controller) request a subset of 
the values/timestamps.

I'm looking into this, because I'm searching for a way to handle massive 
datasets, in which it is such overkill to again and again sent over the 
geometries (be it points or polygons)...
Or another use case: I want points on the map, and timestamps/values flying in 
realtime as they are measured...
Or: you have a giant km grid covering the whole of europe, and data (per hour) 
for 7 days of data, and you can request (remotely!) the value for every grid 
cell per 10 minutes (without having to request the geometry every time...)

Regards & all thanks for the input,

Regards,

Richard
