binary to nc

[Farshid Daryabor]

Hi
Yes My friend of course. First you must make sure your Grads is version 2
above, because "sdfwrite" and "ncks (is under linux)" commands are under
version 2 above. For "ncks" make sure working , anyway you can install NCO
(Netcdf Operator) over your machine. Then
for convert binary to netcdf, first you must write a  ".ctl" file as follow:

dset ^EMP.dat
title evaporation mines prescripton
undef -9999
xdef 360 linear 360 1
ydef 180 linear 180 1
zdef 1 levels 0
tdef 12 linear 05z16jan1960 1mo
vars 1
EMP 0 1 emp
endvars

AND Script for convert as follow:

'reinit'
'open /home/.../binary2netcdf.ctl'
'set lon 0 360'
'set lat 180 359'
'set lev 0 0'
'set t 1 last'
'set e 1 last'
'define emp=var'
'set sdfwrite /home/.../data.nc'
'sdfwrite emp'

Please let me know.
