Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Hi John, two items: a small one and a (maybe) big one.First, on page http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/netcdf/netcdf-java-4/index.jsp
the link to netcdfAll-4.0.jar actually points to netcdf-4.0.jar.Second, the latest netcdfAll-4.0.jar does not read the RUC grib2 files correctly, at least as I'm using it. It doesn't find the hybrid dimension.
Here's a snip from ncfile.toString(): ---------------------------------------------------- ncfile is netcdf /public/data/grids/ruc/hyb_A252/grib2/0905622000003 { dimensions: time = 1; y = 225; x = 301; depth_below_surface = 5; depth_below_surface1 = 1; depth_below_surface2 = 2; depth_below_surface3 = 1; height_above_ground = 1; height_above_ground1 = 1; pressure_difference_layer = 1; bounds_dim = 2; variables: ... float Pressure(time=1, y=225, x=301); :units = "Pa"; :long_name = "Pressure @ hybrid"; :missing_value = -9999.0f; // float :grid_mapping = "Lambert_Conformal"; :GRIB_param_discipline = "Meteorological_products"; :GRIB_param_category = "Mass"; :GRIB_param_name = "Pressure"; :GRIB_param_id = 2, 0, 3, 0; // int:GRIB_product_definition_type = "Analysis/forecast at horizontal level/layer";
:GRIB_level_type = 105; // int -------------------------------------------------------- And here's some output from wgrib2 on the same file: >wgrib2 /public/data/grids/ruc/hyb_A252/grib2/0905622000003|more 1:0:d=2009022522:PRES:1 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 2:70425:d=2009022522:PRES:2 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 3:140762:d=2009022522:PRES:3 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 4:211202:d=2009022522:PRES:4 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 5:281657:d=2009022522:PRES:5 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 6:351773:d=2009022522:PRES:6 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 7:421147:d=2009022522:PRES:7 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 8:489799:d=2009022522:PRES:8 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 9:557601:d=2009022522:PRES:9 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 10:624657:d=2009022522:PRES:10 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 11:691379:d=2009022522:PRES:11 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 12:758346:d=2009022522:PRES:12 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 13:825473:d=2009022522:PRES:13 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 14:892604:d=2009022522:PRES:14 hybrid level:3 hour fcst: 15:959705:d=2009022522:PRES:15 hybrid level:3 hour fcst:Is this a problem with our grib tables not having information about hybrid levels?

Version 4.0 is now the the stable release for the Netcdf-Java library. It is available at http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/ Version 4.0 continues to evolve with new features. However, a stable release means that we will keep future changes to the API backwards compatible to the public API at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/v4.0/javadoc/index.html Version 2.2 is on "maintenence only" mode. We encourage you to switch to 4.0 to take advantage of many significant improvements and bug fixes. Please report problems, bugs and suggested improvements to netcdf-java@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ There are API changes that you may see when you start using 4.0 with an application that has been using 2.2. These are mostly minor and in all cases have equivalent or improved functionality in 4.0. Most of the changes are in implementation classes not often used by applications. More info is at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/transition4.html The license for netcdf-java 4.0 has been changed from LGPL to the "MIT-style" license used by the netCDF C library. This is intended to remove perceived barriers to use by some commercial companies. We anticipate continued contributions of bug fixes and enhancements by the community. _______________________________________________ netcdf-java mailing list netcdf-java@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxFor list information or to unsubscribe, visit: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/mailing_lists/
