Howdy James!

How do you plan to do your analysis? If you are using a package like IDL or 
MatLAB, netCDF files can be read.

If you need to write your own programs in C or fortran, you need to get the 
netCDF C/Fortran library. If you prefer Java, you need to get the netCDF-Java 
library instead.

It's possible to use netCDF without doing any programming, both from the 
command line (with tools like NCO, the NetCDF Command Operators) and with free 
or commercial visualization packages.

The is a list of software that can handle netCDF files on our web page:

Please let me know if you need more help.

Thanks,

Ed
