Best way to animate a sequence of flood maps?

[rsignell-usgs]

We have a sequence of COG images from SAR showing the recent flooding on the Red River in the USA/Canada:

If you look at the catalog, you can see we are using url-template catalog item to access data from a tile service that is actually created on the fly, reading cloud-optimized data files directly from S3.

Is there any way to animate a sequence of imagery like this over time?

To animate time-series imagery you could to create a WMS layer with a time parameter.

At the moment, I believe we don't have the ability to animate a sequence of url-template catalog items across time.

I have created an issue for this #6316
