Greeings Tim, Good question. Typically users have a issues with netcdf-java and unsigned ints, as Java does not have an unsigned int primitive type. However, netcdf-java fully supports signed ints. For a list of supported datatypes, checkout: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/v4.6/netcdf-java/CDM/DataType.html It looks like the latest version of panoply is using the latest release of netcdf-java (v4.6.3), so I do not see anything on the netcdf-java side that could be an issue. netCDF-3 only uses signed types, so one quick way to check panoply is to open a netcdf-3 from from a different dataset or source and see if you can view any int fields. I'd be more than happy to take a look at your specific file to see if anything jumps out to me on the netcdf-java side.
