netcdf file

[Ramon Solano]

Hello Isabel,

As a last resource, you can create a .ctl description file where you can "map"
the original variable names to an alias.

For example, I have a HDF file with a var named "0.5 deg monthly EVI".
I handled
it by creating an alias for it in the corresponding .ctl file. The
entry was as
follow:

VARS 7
0.5~deg~monthly~EVI=>evi 0 y,x EVI
:
ENDVARS

You can read more on the GrADS .ctl file section
(http://grads.iges.org/grads/gadoc/descriptorfile.html#VARS)

Regards,
Ramon
