| - | Summary: cdms2 can read/write netCDF files (and read //grads// dat+ctl files) and provides a higher level interface than netCDF4. Unfortunately, cdms2 is only available in the UV-CDAT distribution, and distributions where somebody has installed some version of //cdat-lite//. When you can use cdms2, you also have access to //cdtime//, that is very useful for handling time axis data. | + | Summary: cdms2 can read/write netCDF files (and read //grads// dat+ctl files) and provides a higher level interface than netCDF4.
