NetCDF Format Versions
There are several ways to represent netCDF data. |
| 7.1 |
Classic File Format
Understanding the netCDF classic format can make clear why modifying the schema of an existing netCDF file may be expensive. |
| 7.2 |
Classic API Performance Tips
Avoid premature optimization: worry about performance only after you determine netCDF I/O is a bottleneck. |
| 7.3 |
Using Less Space for Data
Using less disk space for your data can also reduce access time. |
| 7.4 |
Using Less Time for Data Access
If netCDF access time is a bottleneck, these techniques may help. |
