[netCDF #OQP-121988]: netCDF Import to Mathematica, perhaps via HDF or HDF5 file

Howdy Jim!

Sorry it took me so long to answer your question!

I do not know of any way to directly import netCDF files into Mathematica. 
However, you might try asking on the netCDF mailing list; if anyone has done 
it, they will tell you how:

There is no function in netCDF-4 which copies the file to a new version, but 
perhaps there should be. Such a function would be easy to write, using the 
nc_copy_att and nc_copy_var functions.

NetCDF-4 is out in a stable alpha release, so you could try it. It has been 
tested quite a bit, and awaits only the beta release of HDF5 1.8 to go into 
beta. 

There was also, I believe, a way for the HDF4 library to read netCDF files. I 
have not used it myself, but I believe the capability exists. If this is the 
case, and Mathematica can understand HDF4, perhaps this would work for you.

Let me know if this helped...

Thanks,

Ed Hartnett
