Hello I am trying to get rainfall data from the UK chess-met site
https://catalogue.ceh.ac.uk/datastore/eidchub/2ab15bf0-ad08-415c-ba64-831168be7293/precip/ and here there are a large number of nc files eg "chess-met_precip_gb_1km_daily_20150101-20150131.nc" I’ve found various sources on the net for opening nc files, and getting the data but when I try instructions like nc_data<-nc_open("chess-met_precip_gb_1km_daily_20150101-20150131.nc") lon <- ncvar_get(nc_data, "lon") lon the code works but all I get is a series of element numbers and no data: [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12] [,13] [,14] [,15] [,16] [,17] [,18] [,19] [,20] [,21] [,22] [,23] [,24] And similarly for latitude But if I open the nc file as a raster I get a raster precipitation plot of Great Britain, which rather suggests that the lat and long values are in there somewhere Can anyone help with getting the actual data sets out of an nc file?
