Greetings Galeonites:We need to decide on some sample netcdf files to use for the GALEON experiment.
Russ Rew has put together a nice page of sample files at http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/examples/files.htmlI think we should choose ones using CF conventions. Two that look good from my POV are:
1) http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/examples/tos_O1_2001-2002.ncThis is a simple time series (24 points) of monthly average lat/lon gridded sea surface temperature. It should be simple for most GIS clients to handle.
2) http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/examples/RUC.ncThis is a time series (2 points) having both 2D fields and 3D fields on pressure surfaces, as well as other vertical coordinates.This should be a good challenge for GIS to deal with.
You can download these files and poke around in them using the nj22 ToolsUI:http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/v2.2/webstart/index.html
Other visualizers and tools are listed at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/software.html Any thoughts on using those two files, please post to this group. Thanks! John
