RDH Catalog

The RDH needs to be able to provide a catalog of its data holdings. Since the RDH relies on a list of ODBC Data Sources in its configuration file (See the RDH Configuration Use Case and the RDH Catalog Use Case ) it's catalog is flat. There are no collections, aka containers, aka child catalogs. The RDH holdings can and should be represented as a simple list of DAP data sets. Each of these data sets has a DDS/DDX/DAS representation that can be accessed in the typical DAP manner.

Integration with existing BES catalog services

The RDH will need to have it's own catalog representation in the BES.
