cf2cf - CF-netCDF to CF-netCDF file converter
cf2cf [-f format]
[-i] [-o outfile] [-u] [-v] FILE [FILE ...]
Convert CF-netCDF files
to a single CF-netCDF file.
Variables in the input netCDF files are aggregated
into as few multidimensional netCDF variables as possible using the aggregation
rules based on the CF data model. See http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/~david/cf_aggregation_rules.html
The conversion is carried out internally using the python cf package, which
must be installed. See http://code.google.com/p/cf-python
See http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/~david/cf2cf.html
for more details and examples.
- -f format --format=format
- Set the netCDF format
of the output file. Valid choices are ’NETCDF4’, ’NETCDF4_CLASSIC’, ’NETCDF3_64BIT’,
and ’NETCDF3_CLASSIC’. If unset then assume ’NETCDF3_CLASSIC’.
- -i, --ignore_ioerror
- Ignore unreadable input files, such as empty files or broken symbolic links.
- -o outfile, --output=outfile
- Set the output CF-netCDF file name.
- -u, --strict_units
- Do not assume that numeric variables with the same standard name but missing
units attributes have the same units for their data and therefore such
variables will not be aggregated. If unset, then assume that numeric variables
with the same standard name but missing units attributes have the same
(nondimensionsal) units for their data, as per the CF conventions, and
therefore may be aggregated (if they pass all of the other tests).
- -v, --verbose
- Verbose. Display a summary of the newly created netCDF file.
