Nested hierarchy subsetting with inherited dimensions #503

Open bekozi opened 5 years ago

bekozi commented 5 years ago

Deeply nested netCDF data structures with inherited dimensions are causing issues with dimension map nesting and dimension retrieval from metadata. The two main issues are:

  1. Dimension map parametrization should match the nested location of the field. Only a single level of nesting works currently.
  2. Inherited dimensions should be found by looking up levels until a match is located. Dimensions are expected to be at the current nest level currently.

Thanks to @kurinjiselvaraj for reporting.
