Since the launch of Google Earth at the latest it is clear that online services for multi-Terabyte satellite imagery are becoming integral part of our Internet experience. Actually, 2-D imagery is but the tip of the iceberg - the general concept of multi-dimensional spatio-temporal raster data covers 1-D sensor time series, 2-D imagery, 3-D image time series (x/y/t) and exploration data (x/y/z), 4-D climate models (x/y/z/t), and many more.
