John Caron has continued to refine the classes for multidimensional arrays that were originally used in the Java netCDF package. See http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/caron/ma2.htm We haven't tried to use these with other formats yet. We are aware of the HDF5 effort in the area of providing a Java interface to scientific data (but note that it makes native calls to C functions): http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/java-hdf5-html/ and some other Java packages that also provide multidimensional array abstractions: http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/ninja/ http://imagelib.ncsa.uiuc.edu:90/imagelib/Horizon/overview.html http://nicewww.cern.ch/~hoschek/colt/index.htm --Russ _____________________________________________________________________ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu
