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.
Ryan -- Unidata's IDV has the capability to create a netCDF file from displayed point data. You could read just the parameters you want from the original point data file, go through the motions of displaying the data, and then use the DisplayControl's "File->Save->Export to netCDF". Not IDL or Matlab, but priced "right".....and far more useful....IMHO.... tom On Mon, Aug 17, 2009 at 5:20 PM, Harris, Ryan (Capt.)<rjharris@xxxxxxx> wrote: > Sir/Ma’am, > > > > I did a search on the Unidata site and found info about extracting netCDF > data into CSV-formatted data, but I couldn’t find anything about creating > netCDF data from CSV or ASCII data.
