Barry Schwartz wrote a program that generates Fortran code for reading a netCDF
file. It opens a specified netCDF file and generates the necessary Fortran code
to declare the corresponding Fortran dimensions and variables and reads all the
data into Fortran variables. To see a copy of the program click on the link

Fortran Code to read NetCDF

Nathan Bindoff wrote the following sample of Matlab read code to access
WOCE-MET's netCDF formatted files. The code can be modified to read any version
200 NetCDF file in our ship and buoy archive.

Nathan Bindoff gives an introduction on how to read and understand NetCDF files.
He wrote sample codes for Matlab, IDL, and FORTRAN, which can be modified to
read any version "woce" NetCDF file in our ship and buoy archive. Links to other
useful sites about NetCDF files are included in the NetCDF Primer.

The INVTIME procedures convert the minute timestamp from ship data provided by
WOCE-MET back into a standard year/month/day/hour/minute time. They are
available in C , FORTRAN, and IDL source.

The CONVTIME procedures convert a standard year/month/day/hour/minute time into
the minute timestamp from ship data provided by WOCE-MET. They are available in
C , FORTRAN, and IDL source.

The TRUEWIND procedures compute meteorological true winds (direction from which
the wind is blowing, relative to true north; and the speed relative to the fixed
earth). They are available in C, FORTRAN, and IDL source.
