Remarks

WCSLayer accesses a coverage served through an OGC WCS service and visualize the pixels of the coverage in ArcGIS. An OGC coverage is similar to a raster in ArcGIS, and WCSLayer supports most of the functions that a RasterLayer provides. The display of a OGC coverage layer can be manipulated by accessing Renderer and other information throught IRasterLayer interface.

WCSLayer supports two types of renderers, RasterStretchColorRampRenderer and RasterRGBRenderer.
