It looks llike the WMS service that comes out of the console does not advertise it support the time dimension and as a result an application we use wont allow us to show the time components.


Is is possible that when the get capabilities come out of sentinel hub to advertise as per OGC specification that time dimension is suported.


IS there a setting i am missing?

It is not simple to define time component for a collection like Sentinel-2, which has data in some parts of the world available a couple of times a day, then in 2 (3) days, then in 5 days, then sometimes not at all (e.g. Northern Europe during winter).


A while ago, when introducing the OGC API, we tried to tackle this option, but did not find a good solution. There is also this issue that many clients do not support this parameter (e.g. QGIS)…


If you can point us to the part of the standard, which provides guildeline on how to do that, we will certainly look into it.


That said, we do have a STAC API, which can easily provide this info, for your AOI:

Catalog API examples in curl. To run the examples, you need an access token.








Looking at the documentation form OGC - i have attached here https://portal.ogc.org/files/?artifact_id=56394


per layer we can add this


2017-01-01T00:00:00.000Z/2019-06-18T00:00:00.000Z/P3Y


We have actually had something like this (without P3Y as the interval was infinite), but it did still not do any good in ArcGIS.

Do you have an example of WMS that works well in ArcGIS in term of time?


(this was a couple of years ago, so it might be that things improved in the meanwhile)


the one that really helped me see what is happening is this

example 2

I was also able to download the Capabilities locally and change them a little bit so i can get it working


see here

Thanks for putting this effort. We will look into it and if it is feasible, add it as a feature to our OGC end-points.
