[netCDF #ZYU-932294]: Single netCDF file with multiple groups

Sorry, no. netcdf-c does not support that kind of reference.

> 
> I’m currently working with the Data Assimilation team at NCAR. Could you
> tell me if I could put one observation into multiple groups within a single
> netCDF file? For example, suppose I have an observation like below:
> 
> variable:
> >     temp (time, lat, lon);
> > data:
> >     temp = 3;
> 
> 
> Is there a way to put the single observation temp=3 in two different groups
> without copying that observation again? I was thinking of something along
> these lines,
> 
> group Europe {
> 
> // A pointer to the observation temp=3
> 
> }
> 
> group July {
> 
> // A pointer to the observation temp=3
> 
> }
> 
> as opposed to having to copy the data and putting it in the two separate
> groups.
> 
> Please let me know if you need more information. I look forward to your
> response!
