Hi

I maintain a software called HDF Explorer (displays hdf and hdf5), and I am 
interested in displaying  netCDF data in it .

The several SDS datasets are displayed in HDF Explorer as folders in a 
hierarchical tree, its dimensions being sub-folders

Do you have any suggestion how netCDF objects should be showed ?
I did a brief review of the netCDF data model, and of the ncdump utility, and I 
was thinking of displaying
the "variables" like the SDS's and the global dimensions as icons in the root

you can download HDF Explorer here

Thanks
