viewer's Issues

add a README.md file

It would be nice to add a README.md file with brief description of this project (that it is the viewer service used at data.gov, and what functionality it currently has (handles WMS, ESRI Rest, KML, ...)

Problem representing this WMS service

We have a model output dataset from a Unidata THREDDS Data Server on data.gov at
http://catalog.data.gov/dataset/coawst-forecast-system-usgs-us-east-coast-and-gulf-of-mexico-experimental

If you click any of the WMS links (simple or advanced viewer) we get back "can not load map":

Yet it seems that the WMS service is working okay. This request:

Do you know what the issue is with this WMS service in the viewer?
