((The answer))Problems with .cdf (.nc) template

[Isabel belitaps]

To those who may be interest,

The .cdf is a .nc's type. To open a template of these files in GrADS it's
necessary to create a .ddf (see example), this runs with 'xdfopen' in versions
higher than L8SL10.

Dear all,

Does somebody know how to use template with .CDF data?


I've been trying to work with SODA 2.0.2  on GrADS. So, I'd  built a
template and  when I'd displayed it on Grads, the grid was displaced
on x axis  (about 90 degrees). And suface's data do not plot, as well.

A have a clue: it's possible that the problem is the header, which must be
interpreted as data for GrADS.

Could you help me to solve this problem? Do you have any clue about
what I should do?

thanks. Best Regards,


Isabel
