The newest version!
package ucar.nc2.iosp.grads
I/O Service Provider for GrADS Binary Grid Files. This IOSP handles:
- raw lat/lon binary grid files (DTYPE not defined)
- ensembles defined by NAMES in one file or as a template
- time templates
- gaussian latitudes
It does not yet handle:
- other DTYPEs since these are readable through other IOSPs
- projected data (has PDEF)
- cross-sections since there isn't enough metadata to define the
single x or y dimension
- ensembles defined by EDEF/ENDEDEF
- some miscellaneous options:
- zrev - no examples
- 365_day_calendar - no support in netCDF-Java for imaginary times
- byteswapped - no examples, bad way to do it
- cray_32bit_ieee - no examples
