Introduction

NetCDF is a set of software libraries and self-describing, machine-independent data formats that support the creation, access, and sharing of array-oriented scientific data. NetCDF was developed and is maintained at Unidata. Unidata provides data and software tools for use in geoscience education and research. Unidata is part of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) Community Programs (UCP). Unidata is funded primarily by the National Science Foundation.

Installed version

The following versions of NetCDF are currently installed on the cluster:

  • netCDF/4.4.1-intel-2016b-with-HDF4
  • netCDF/4.4.1-intel-2016b
  • netCDF-Fortran/4.4.4-intel-2016b-with-HDF4
  • netCDF-Fortran/4.4.4-intel-2016b

Using NetCDF on the HPC cluster

If you want to use NetCDF on the HPC cluster, you will have to load its corresponding module first. You can do that with the command:

module load netCDF

This will netCDF in version 4.4.1-intel-2016b and its dependencies. If you want to use a different version of netCDF, you will have to use specify that like so:

module load netCDF/4.4.1-intel-2016b-with-HDF4
