hi roland:
it looks like a bug in the DAS:
NC_GLOBAL {
String sensor heights (agl) "Winds 3.4 m
I think
sensor heights (agl)
should be a single token or something.
What is the server? It doesnt look like a TDS. Is it hyrax ?
The underlying file might be a new version of netcdf that allows blanks in the
attribute names, and the server doesnt yet know how to deal.
