5.3 NcML
NcML (netCDF Markup Language) is a dialect of XML for representing netCDF data, for virtual netCDF files, and for virtual aggregations.

The ncdump utility can output NcML for classic netCDF data.

Example:

$ ncdump -x mslp.nc
output Show popup

You can also use the netCDF-Java ToolsUI utility for conversion among NcML, netCDF, and CDL, as well as other formats.
