Version 4.6.2 of the netCDF Operators (NCO) has been released. NCO is an Open Source package that consists of a dozen standalone, command-line programs that take netCDF files as input, then operate (e.g., derive new data, average, print, hyperslab, manipulate metadata) and output the results to screen or files in text, binary, or netCDF formats.

Version 4.6.1 of the netCDF Operators (NCO) has been released. NCO is an Open Source package that consists of a dozen standalone, command-line programs that take netCDF files as input, then operate (e.g., derive new data, average, print, hyperslab, manipulate metadata) and output the results to screen or files in text, binary, or netCDF formats.

The issue of multi-threaded read and write of NetCDF files has repeatedly arisen in the netcdf mailing list (netcdfgroup@unidata.ucar.edu).

The 2016 AGU Fall Meeting, to be held 12-16 December 2016 in San Francisco, California, will include a session titled “Advancing netCDF-CF for the Geoscience Community.”

The converners encourage you to consider contributing to the session by submitting a short abstract for the session. Please read on for details.

This documents outlines a proposal to create an alternate Netcdf-4 file format targeted to high-performance, READ-ONLY, access.

Version 4.4.1 of the NetCDF-C library is now available. This release provides official support for libhdf5 1.10.0.

Note: netCDF library 4.4.0 or earlier, combined with libhdf5 1.10.0 or greater, will generate netCDF-4 format files that cannot be read by software using earlier versions of libhdf5 (1.8.x), regardless of the version of netCDF.

Read on for additional highlights of this release beyond support for libhdf5 version 1.10.0.

Version 4.6.0 of the netCDF Operators (NCO) has been released. NCO is an Open Source package that consists of a dozen standalone, command-line programs that take netCDF files as input, then operate (e.g., derive new data, average, print, hyperslab, manipulate metadata) and output the results to screen or files in text, binary, or netCDF formats.

The NCO project is coordinated by Professor Charlie Zender of the Department of Earth System Science, University of California, Irvine. More information about the project, along with binary and source downloads, are available on the SourceForge project page.

Version 4.5.5 of the netCDF Operators (NCO) has been released. NCO is an Open Source package that consists of a dozen standalone, command-line programs that take netCDF files as input, then operate (e.g., derive new data, average, print, hyperslab, manipulate metadata) and output the results to screen or files in text, binary, or netCDF formats.
