Hi
I would like to add data to a netCDF file one record at a time. The reason
is I have data files containing many Megabytes of data records. Storing the
data in an array before writing into a netCDF file is not feasible. Is there
a simple way to do this ? I read in the User's Guide that only one variable
can have unlimited dimension. In this case I am forced to find out the number
of records in order to set the dimensions of the data. This is also very
cumbersome. Is there a way around this ? I know netCDF data is meant to be
appendable (-->FAQ) and I have looked in the Users' Guide but there is no
mention of "append" in the index. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
best regards
