Hi All, > I note that on the netCDF-4 page > (http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/netcdf-4/index.html), > that: > > - NetCDF-4.2 will provide data packing as byte, short, and int for > classic model files; additionally ubyte, ushort, and uint may be used > for netCDF-4 files (using scale/offset, as can currently be done > 'manually') > > - NetCDF-4.3 will provide bit packed - n-bit values with a > scale/offset, in accordance with the netCDF Java model (n-bit instead > of 8/16/32-bit). > > As both of these are very useful features (especially the > bit-packing), I wondered if there was a planned timeline for these > netCDF-4 releases? > > Thanks. > > Regards, > Bruce > -- > Bruce Wright Senior IT Architect > Met Office FitzRoy Road Exeter EX1 3PB United Kingdom > Tel: +44 (0)1392 886481 Fax: 0870 9005050 > E-mail: bruce.wright@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.metoffice.gov.uk > <http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/> > This e-mail is intended for the addressee only.
