Hello,
I've run into a problem with ncgen/ncdump that perhaps someone can help me
with.
I'm running ncgen to create a netCDF file:
ncgen -b -o somefile someinput
The "someinput" file contains text like this:
float liq(time) ;
liq:long_name = "Total liquid water along LOS path" ;
liq:units = "cm" ;
liq:resolution = 0.0001f ;
liq:missing_value = -9999.f ;
Ncgen works just fine, and when I run
ncdump somefile
I see:
float liq(time) ;
liq:long_name = "Total liquid water along LOS path" ;
liq:units = "cm" ;
liq:resolution = 9.9999997e-05f ;
liq:missing_value = -9999.f ;
liq:uncertainty = "+/- 0.002 cm" ;
Note that the "resolution" attribute has been changed. It has essentially
the same value as the "someinput" information, but it is not as easy to
read.
My questions:
1) Is there any way to "force" ncgen and/or ncdump to display the attribute
info as I want it to?
2) Is there a better way to define the "resolution" attribute in the first
place?
Any help will be appreciated. Interestingly enough, this does not always
happen. (This corruption -- if you can call it that -- of the resolution
attribute on one system that I have access to.)
