Additional content needed for Getting Data into VAPOR #2959

Open clyne opened 2 years ago

clyne commented 2 years ago

A few missing items from our "Getting Data into VAPOR" documentation:

Additional NetCDF using Python examples

  1. Creating a NetCDF-CF file from an Xarray array (or numpy array) I.e. generate a 3D Xarray/Numpy array with synthetic data and write it to a NetCDF-CF file with coordinates.
  2. Create a NetCDF-CF file that contains a curvilinear grid. This could be done with synthetic data as per above, or simply modifying the "dealing with stretched grids" example so that it has 2D coordinate variables instead of 1D

Add "UGRID" to the list of supported file formats

@sgpearse can we close this now?

@clyne I have a curvilinear grid example that I had to table before the 3.6 release. It needs to be added here. After we get that in, we should be able to close this.
