I'm assuming the above is a grid? We just don't have the right patterns to determine this and we will add them. However, by explicitly defining the data type with the "Data Source Type:" menu as "Grid Files (NetCdf, GRIB, OpenDap)" I am getting an error from the server: "This DODS server does not know how to serve the dataset" so there are further problems that are probably on the server. I am forwarding this URL to our opendap group and they may be able to shed some light on it. -Jeff Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: QDP-452303 Department: Support IDV Priority: Normal Status: Open
