It looks like the units in the CLASS data are, “hour since 1997-01-01 00:00:00”
In the test data, (which works fine, I confirm) , the units are, “days since
2001-1-1”
I would expect the attribute axis = ”T” to indicate this is a time dimension.
Time as a UOM might be used in any property, not just dimensions.
What do you think?
TIME1 (-1051845271)
double, 182
Number of attributes = 5
units = hour since 1997-01-01 00:00:00
time_origin = 1-JAN-1997 00:00:00
axis = T
standard_name = time
bounds = TIME1_bnds
time (-781830246)
double, 24
Number of attributes = 7
standard_name = time
long_name = time
units = days since 2001-1-1
axis = T
calendar = 360_day
bounds = time_bnds
original_units = seconds since 2001-1-1

Subject: Re: [Paraview] Time Variables in CF Conventions
The netCDF CF reader in ParaView does support time dimensions. For example, the
netCDF file tos_O1_2001-2002.nc used for VTK testing
(https://midas3.kitware.com/midas/item/206312<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__midas3.kitware.com_midas_item_206312&d=CwMGaQ&c=uGuXJ43KPkPWEl2imVFDmZQlhQUET7pVRA2PDIOxgqw&r=PPcXhptMPNzBCwHx-o1zqg&m=A7bpyohhfVnNQoUi0GE2BJS2jE2OkxogntGvLqTmVGM&s=HGoAZZDUus7tmDI-abU30H7Ij8Qg_EeQwanbaawq2-w&e=>)
has a time dimension and it loads just fine.
As I recall, the CF convention defines the time dimension using a units
property on the variable that specifies some unit of time. One problem that has
occurred in the past is that sometimes the time unit is something that the
reader does not recognize as time. What is the time units used in your data set?

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Time Variables in CF Conventions
I am trying to read a CF Conventions NetCDF file (Sea Surface Temperature from
NOAA).
The CF reader in ParaView recognizes the axes and the data correctly. However,
it does not seem to recognize the TIME dimension.
Is anyone here reading CF (Climate Forecasting) files successfully?
