-<note important>''​cdms2''​ is unfortunately not maintained anymore and is slowly being **phased out in favor of a combination of [[#​xarray|xarray]] and [[https://​xcdat.readthedocs.io/​|xCDAT]]**</​note>​+<note important>​

-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.+  * ''​cdms2''​ will [[https://​github.com/​CDAT/​cdms/​issues/​449|not be compatible with numpy after numpy 1.23.5]] :-(
