| - | ==== cdms2 ==== | + | * If you are working with climate model output data, there is a good chance that your input array data will be stored in a NetCDF file! |
| - | Summary: cdms2 can read/write netCDF files (and read //grads// dat+ctl files) and provides a higher level interface than netCDF4. cdms2 is available in the [[other:python:starting#cdat|CDAT distribution]], and can theoretically be installed independently of CDAT (e.g. it will be installed when you install [[https://cmor.llnl.gov/mydoc_cmor3_conda/|CMOR in conda)]]. When you can use cdms2, you also have access to //cdtime//, that is very useful for handling time axis data. | + | * Read the [[other:newppl:starting#netcdf_and_related_conventions|NetCDF and related Conventions]] for more information |
