Greetings Jeff, If you are dealing with GRIB files, you should use netCDF-Java 4.3. The GRIB handling in 4.2 is broken. See the note for GRIB users here and try the 4.3 jar: https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/documentation.htm#v43 Cheers!

My need is > to read GRIB2 files from NCEP. I have encountered several problems. The > most serious is that, according to the documnentation, objects from > the class Grib2ProductDefintionSection have a method that returns an > object of the class Grib2PDSVariables, but there is no such class as > Grib2PDSVariables in the package. > > Another serious problem is that the class Grib2GridDefinitionSection > does not appear to read in the correct number of bytes. This results in > an array out of bounds exception being raised in line 1741 of method > getInt in Grib2GDSVariables.java (which is called from line 82 of > GribGDSVariables.java, which in turn is in a method called from line > 418 of Grib2GridDefinitionSection.java). I have verified that all the > GRIB2 files that I have tested with are properly constructed GRIB2 files. > > Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: IHC-743264 Department: Support netCDF Java Priority: Normal Status: Open
