Is there a good WMS tile cache that understands the WMS time dimension? And what configuration is necessary? Open source preferred.
I am serving some WMS layers with the time dimension, so the map requests from the client include dates. For example http://…?…request=GETMAP&…&TIME=2010-12-10 returns the map for 10 Dec 2010. In my undestanding the tile cache will need to treat the TIME parameter as an identifier for the maps, just like the layer name.
I'm aware of Geowebcache, Tilecache, and MapProxy but I can't find any reference to the time dimension in their documentation. The time dimension has existed since WMS 1.1.0 so I would hope it's been considered by someone? Our layers are served by ncWMS and MapServer, if that's relevant. We would like to use a tile cache to increase the speed for our most frequently requested content. Can anyone recommend a tile cache, and preferably point us to the relevant documentation too?
