Hi Gerald: You should be able to use it. The stability and code quality is moderately good. However, until we implement the NetCDF-4 reader, we are not sure if the API might need some (probably minor) changes. We anticipate a stable NetCDF-4 format by fall of 2006. the size of the .5 degree grids are large, so the nc file will probably be over 2 gigs. 1089448494 Jun 6 10:08 GFS_Global_0p5deg_20060606_1200.grib2 there is a command line program call Grib2Netcdf, % java -Xmx512m -classpath $CP ucar.nc2.iosp.grib.Grib2Netcdf $INPUT $NC where $CP is CLASSPATH and of course $INPUT input grib and $NC is output file. robb...
