DAP4 Features
This is a straw man design, broken down into sections. It is incomplete and its content is subject to revision.
- Versions
- Checksum
- DAP Service Terminus
- Data Model and a XML Schema that provides one representation for the data model.
- Requests
- Responses
- Web Services
Proposals
These proposals have been put forth by Dennis (Jimg 15:18, 27 March 2012 (PDT) Ordered by priority at the 3/27/12 meeting):
- Grids Ideas Under Review (Cleaned up 4/10/2012)
- Old Version of Grids Proposal New (New 4/10/2012)
- Constraints and Shared Dimensions Under Review, closely related to Grids Ideas (New 02/26/2012)
- Ideas for Defining VLens (and Sequences) Under Consideration (New 02/25/2012)
- XML Use in DAP4 Accepted (Modified: 2/25/2012)
- Path Specification in DAP4 New (New 3/30/2012)
- Character Escape Mechanisms in DAP4 New (Modified 4/5/2012)
- Asynchronous Responses New (New 4/5/2012)
- Coordinate Systems Element New (New 4/10/2012)
These ideas are orthogonal to the ones above (which cover different aspects of the data model). They are about aspects of the server/service software requests and responses:
- Proposed DAP4 On-The-Wire Format New (Completely rewritten 4/8/2012)
- Possible Notation for Server Commands New (New 02/26/2012)
These ideas have to do with formal notations for the specification:
- DAP4 DDX Grammar New
- DAP4: DDX Lexical Elements New (Modified 2/28/2012)

Old DAP4 Design and Implementation
- DAP3/4
- DAP 4.0 Design and DAP 4.0 Essential Features The design is meant to be a complete document while essential features are the minimal see we want to release. Since this task has been stalled for nearly a year, doing the latter seems like a noble goal.
