Significance of the File
BAW instance of a NetCDF file.
All NetCDF conventions, which are relevant to store the typical BAW-specific data, are
documented in detail in the NetCDF-Pages of BAW-Wiki.
File-Contents (in Catchwords)
- header with metadata:
- list of dimensions (name and length),
- list of variables (name, type and dimension(s)) for which data are stored in the file,
- attributes related to variables (long_name, units etc.), and
- global attributes (title, history etc.).
- Remark: the names of attributes as well as standard variable names should be chosen according to the following given conventions:
- data for all variables stored in the file:
- coordinate-variable data,
- data for ordinary variables, for which only one data record is stored in the file, and finally
- data for record-variables (which have one unlimited dimension, e.g. time), which can be stored several times.
