Description

When setting start and end time via url,

https://github.com/NASA-AMMOS/MMGIS/blob/development/documentation/pages/markdowns/Deep_Linking.md#starttimestart-time

you cannot choose to make the global time relative. It may be useful to support this as you have the option to do this via the javascript API and via the Time UI.

Not a priority for our team.

Research direction

Start with documentation/pages/markdowns/Deep_Linking.md, especially the startTime/start-time section, and compare URL parameter handling with the JavaScript API and Time UI behavior. Trace how global start and end times are parsed, then verify that a URL can request relative global time and that the documented deep-link behavior matches the implementation.
