Hi,
I'm starting to create some netCDF files using the new discrete sampling
geometries in the CF standard. My first example is a trajectory. The
header is appended below. However, when I try to read the fie in the
latest toolsUI (4.2.26) under the "Trajectory" tab I get a error message
that say "Failed to find DataType factory for datatype = TRAJECTORY.
I'm looking for clues about my clueless-ness that is leading to this error.
I'd be grateful if others who have created example files of the various
discrete sampling geometries would share them with me. Bob Simons, I'm
looking at you. ;-)
Thanks,
Roland
