Hi Seth: http://www.isse.ucar.edu/mcginnis/narccap/thredds-test/pr_mm5p_fixed.nc works fine (the other not). We can do spatial subsetting on it. You might want to check that the domain looks correct, using ToolsUI or IDV (or NCL) Looks like a good job to me, my only minor comment is int Lambert_Conformal(ncl4=1);could just be
int Lambert_Conformal; but it doesnt actually matter. address@hidden wrote:
Hi John,This is Seth McGinnis; I'm working with Larry McDaniel on the NARCCAP project.I have placed two sample NetCDF files on Lambert conformal grids here: http://www.isse.ucar.edu/mcginnis/narccap/thredds-test/pr_mm5p_trunc.nc http://www.isse.ucar.edu/mcginnis/narccap/thredds-test/pr_mm5p_fixed.nc_fixed is the same as _trunc, but I have tried to massage it to be CF-compliant. (I'm still learning the CF standard, so I'm not sure that I succeeded.) Let me know if either of those will work for testing whether TDS can do spatial subsetting on this map projection.I *believe* that the only other map projection we'll have to deal with is polar stereographic, but I'm not certain about that, and I don't have any data files from those models available.Thanks, -SethHi Larry:Yes, we can handle lambert_conformal_conic, but i need to get a sample file before i can be sure.----------------------------------------------------------------
