I used

cloudcover = wmsfind('cloud','Version','online');

to download all the WMS cloud cover, and now I would like to refine it to be just those cloud covers that show a global coverage. I have tried this:

globalcloud = refine(cloudcover,'*global*');

which gives me three very specific results.

Is there a way to search by the lat/lon limits ([-90,90],[-180,180]) to find other global coverages? I tried:

globalcloud = refine(cloudcover,'*90*90*180*180');

which did not return any results, and

globalcloud = refine(cloudcover,'Latlim','[-90,90]');

which returned a number of errors.

Am I doing something wrong, or am I trying to do something I cannot do?

Thank you.

You can query on Latlim and Lonlim in the "wmsfind" command:

                             >> cloudcover = wmsfind('cloud','Version','online','Latlim',[-90 90],'Lonlim', [-180 180]);
                            

This will give you 590 results that all have the proper Latlim and Lonlim values.

I was almost there. Thank you.
