Overview of NetCDF
The network Common Data Format (netCDF) is a self-describing scientific data access interface and library developed at the Unidata Program Center in Boulder, Colorado. The netCDF interface and library use XDR (eXternal Data Representation) to make the data format machine-independent. This version of IDL supports netCDF 3.5. IDL's NetCDF routines all begin with the prefix "NCDF_".
More information about netCDF can be found on Unidata's netCDF World Wide Web home page which can be found at:
