  • Date: Sun, 20 Jan 2008 05:27:01 -0700

Although I don't know of any programs for converting netCDF data into
.RAW visualization formats, there are several programs available for
3D visualization of netCDF data.  For examples, see the entries for software
such as ARGOS, IDV, NCL, OpenDX, PolyPaint+, VisAD, etc. on the netCDF
web page for "Software for Manipulating or Displaying NetCDF Data" at

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/software.html

You may also be able to use text output of netCDF variable values to
generate the .raw file data you require.  For this, you might find the
"ncdump" utility useful or the "ncks" utility from the NCO package.

Sorry we don't know of any software that directly converts to the format
you need ...
