For example, ncWMS forms the basis of the View Service for the MyOcean project (www.myocean.eu), which provides access to operational oceanography data from European data providers such as the UK Met Office and Mercator in France.
Some data providers choose to implement their own custom graphical interface to ncWMS, taking advantage of the WMS extensions: see Fig. 5 ncWMS and the Godiva2 viewer have been adapted into plug-ins for the widely-used Unidata THREDDS Data Server (Signell et al., 2008; Blower et al., 2009b), which is used by organizations such as NOAA and the US Geological Survey for serving environmental data; the ncWMS/Godiva2 plug-ins allow all these datasets to be interactively browsed on the Web.
