Hi Justin,

times[-10:-1] is actually the last 10 available times - but could be less than 
10 minutes. If you are wanting to do a timerange, you can do the following for 
example to get the last 60 minutes:

from dynamicserialize.dstypes.com.raytheon.uf.common.time import TimeRange

# Time range
lastHourDateTime = datetime.utcnow() - timedelta(minutes = 60)
start = lastHourDateTime.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
end = datetime.utcnow().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

beginRange = datetime.strptime( start , "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
endRange = datetime.strptime( end , "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
timerange = TimeRange(beginRange, endRange)
# Get response
response = DataAccessLayer.getGeometryData(request,timerange)


This was also used in this example:
