[netCDF #MGH-755722]: software to view NC files

Greetings,

Apologies for jumping into this thread, but might I suggest NASA
Goddard Institute for Space Studies's software Panoply:

https://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/panoply/download/

The files themselves are missing a lot of metadata, so you won't
necessarily see the data located over a map, but Panoply will
allow you to easily view the data and metadata. It works on Windows,
Mac, and Linux.

Cheers,

Sean
