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, I run into this problem using netcdf-java toolsUI to open either local netcdf-4 file or via opendap, here is an example link http://esg.nccs.nasa.gov/thredds/catalog/ying/readonly/catalog.html?dataset=ying/readonly/e562p1_fp.inst3_3d_asm_Nv.20100907_00z%2B20100909_1200z.nc4 it just shows all -Infinity on the color-bar. I was first having trouble to use NASA GISS Panoply (which uses netcdf-java), then I tried this recent version of netcdf-java 42. ToolsUI (downloaded from UNIDATA) --- it can read netcdf-4 file (the above link) but it shows same max and min values of each variable. As a result, it just gives a blank plot. Then I tried toolsUI-4.2.jar and it shows the same problem. ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf-java/v4.2/toolsUI-4.2.jar by the way, I can use Ferret (most recent version) to open this netCDF-4 file and makes right plots.
