Re: [opendx-users] Importing NETCDF data

[Frederick R. Phelan Jr.]

Unfortunately, my netCDF data is in Binary. I can't see it, so I don't know what it is doing.

It seems to be in the form t,x,y, rather than x,y,t, based on the interpretation of the DESCRIBE output. Did you see that ... what did you think?

Thanks,
Fred

The default behaviour of DX is to interpret any UNLIMITED dimension as
the time variable. If X is of format (NX,NY,unlimited) then it should be
interpreted as a series by default.

ncdump -h  is your friend together with the examples in the above manual.
I've also documented some cases where I've helped some people get their
data right for OpenDX. But neither data set is a time series though.

Please tell me how it goes and if you need more advice.
