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, I am investigating the use of the java netcdf API for serving our data. We have scalar time-series data from stationary instruments, data from mobile platforms, and complex data stored in a db and files on an archive server. I’m trying to determine if it is possible and relatively simple to write a service using the Java API to respond to OpenDAP requests. I can write the NetCDF files easily enough; but not sure if I can simply respond with them, or whether I would have to write the data to a temporary location and have some external service serve them from there. Could you please point me in the right direction for this investigation? Other possibilities we are investigating are the use of Hyrax and the use of ERDDAP to serve netCDF files and tabular data. Thanks in advance for your insights!

Those classes all contain various methods for writing to NetCDF files, but none appear to have a 1:1 correspondence to the functionality you got from the now deprecated FileWriter.writeToFile() method, at least from what I can tell (the JavaDoc is sparse , at best). From what I can tell one way to go about it is to use the FileWriter2 constructor and then its write() method, like so: FileWriter2 fileWriter = new FileWriter2(netcdfDataset, outFilePath, NetcdfFileWriter.Version.netcdf3, null); NetcdfFile outNetcdfFile = fileWriter.write(); The above seems to work just fine. Is this the reasonable/recommended way to do things now? --James On Wed, Aug 20, 2014 at 3:38 PM, Smith, Brian <brian.smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:brian.smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>> wrote: Hi James, I believe the current functions for this purpose are http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/v4.3/netcdf-java/v4.3/javadoc/ucar/nc2/NetcdfFileWriter.html or http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/v4.3/netcdf-java/v4.3/javadoc/ucar/nc2/FileWriter2.html or http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/v4.3/netcdf-java/v4.3/javadoc/ucar/nc2/dt/grid/NetcdfCFWriter.html depending on your needs, assuming you are using 4.3.

The method FileWriter.writeToFile(NetcdfFile, String , boolean) is marked as deprecated in the JavaDoc, and shows as such in Eclipse. I'd like to use an appropriate/non-deprecated method for this, but the JavaDoc gives no guidance as to what that might be. My use case is that I have a NetcdfDataset that I want to write to file. Can anyone advise?
