Hello CFers, A few months ago I introduced ncdismember, a script that uses the netCDF Operators (NCO) to dismember hierarchical netCDF-compliant files into netCDF3-compliant (flat-) files, then calls CFChecker on those. It is a simple (one-line) procedure that checks CF-compliance of all groups in hierarchical netCDF4/HDF5 files. The recent releases of NCO 4.4.0 and netCDF 4.3.1-rc7 bring significant new features to ncdismember...
1. Works on all groups in netCDF4/HDF5 files. Not only leaf groups. 2. Works on HDF4 files. No prior conversion to netCDF necessary. 3. Automatically translates input to netCDF3-supported types (e.g., nc_string->nc_char, nc_ubyte->nc_short). 4. Is faster: Uses CFChecker batch mode and avoids temporary output. Example input (*.nc, *.hdf, *.h5, *.he5) and output (*.txt): http://dust.ess.uci.edu/diwg For more information see http://nco.sf.net/nco.html#dismember Feedback welcome on relevant NCO SourceForge forum https://sourceforge.net/p/nco/discussion Enjoy, Charlie -- Charlie Zender, Earth System Sci. & Computer Sci.
