  • Date: Mon, 05 Nov 2012 09:03:55 -0700
Greetings Angela!

In order to use the Flow Plan View display (or any of the flow
related displays), you will need the u and v components, or
direction, of the wave motion (or winds). Your netCDF file
only contains data for wave height, so it will not be possible
to create a flow display without more data.

Cheers,

Sean
