NetCDF Python API examples

Code samples of how to read and write NetCDF files using the netCDF4 module for Python (not part of the standard library).

Requirements

The NetCDF library is required, as wel as tne netcdf4 python package. To run scripts, you can use the environment defied by:

  • environment.yml
  • netcdf_linux64_conda_specs.txt

What is it?

  1. write_netcdf.py: writes an NetCDF 3 file that has three dimensions x, y, and z. The grid points are stored in variables 'x', 'y', and 'z' respectively, and the field is stored in a 3D variable 'field'. NetCDF 3 as well as NetCDF 4 can be generated since ParaView prior to version 4.1.x seems not to be able to deal with NetCDF 4.
  2. read_netcdf.py: read a NetCDF file that was created write_netcdf.py.
  3. test.nc: sample NetCDF file.
