Interface Summary

Interface	Description
CoordSysBuilder.ConventionNameOk	Allow plug-ins to determine if it owns a file based on the file's Convention attribute.
CoordSysBuilderIF	Implement this interface to add Coordinate Systems to a NetcdfDataset.
CoordTransBuilderIF	Implement this interface to add a Coordinate Transform to a NetcdfDataset.
Enhancements	A Variable decorator that handles Coordinates Systems and "standard attributes" and adds them to the object model.
EnhanceScaleMissing	A Variable decorator that handles missing data, and scale/offset packed data.
ReplaceVariableCheck	public by accident
VariableEnhanced	Public interface to an "enhanced Variable", implemented by the ucar.nc2.dataset package.

Class Summary

Class	Description
CoordinateAxis	A Coordinate Axis is a Variable that specifies one of the coordinates of a CoordinateSystem.
CoordinateAxis.AxisComparator	Standard sort on Coordinate Axes
CoordinateAxis1D	A 1-dimensional Coordinate Axis.
CoordinateAxis1DTime	A 1-dimensional Coordinate Axis representing Calendar time.
CoordinateAxis2D	A 2-dimensional numeric Coordinate Axis.
CoordinateSystem	A CoordinateSystem specifies the coordinates of a Variable's values.
CoordinateTransform	A CoordinateTransform is an abstraction of a function from a CoordinateSystem to a "reference" CoordinateSystem, such as lat, lon.
CoordSysBuilder	Abstract class for implementing Convention-specific parsing of netCDF files.
CoordTransBuilder	Manager for Coordinate Transforms.
DatasetConstructor	Helper methods for constructing NetcdfDatasets.
NetcdfDataset	NetcdfDataset extends the netCDF API, adding standard attribute parsing such as scale and offset, and explicit support for Coordinate Systems.
NetcdfDatasetInfo	Helper class for obtaining information about a NetcdfDataset.
ProjectionCT	A Projection CoordinateTransform is a function from (GeoX, GeoY) -> (Lat, Lon).
SequenceDS	Enhance sequence
StructureDS	An "enhanced" Structure.
StructurePseudo2Dim	Make a collection of variables with the same 2 outer dimensions into a fake 2D Structure(outer,inner)
StructurePseudoDS	Make a collection of variables with the same outer dimension into a fake Structure.
VariableDS	An wrapper around a Variable, creating an "enhanced" Variable.
VerticalCT	A VerticalCT is a CoordinateTransform function CT: (GeoZ) -> Height or Pressure.
VerticalCT.Type	Enumeration of known Vertical transformations.

Enum Summary

Enum	Description
NetcdfDataset.Enhance	Possible enhancements for a NetcdfDataset
TransformType	Type-safe enumeration of netCDF Dataset TransformType.

Package ucar.nc2.dataset Description

An extension to the netCDF API which provides support for coordinate systems, scale/offset/missing data, and NcML.

• Coordinate systems allow the specification and recognition of general and georeferencing coordinate systems within a netCDF dataset.
• Scale/offset/missing data handles the conversion of integer data to floating point, and the interaction with missing data values
• NcML, the NetCDF Markup Language, is an XML schema for showing, adding and changing netCDF metadata in XML. NcML dataset allows you to create virtual netCDF datasets, including combining multiple netCDF files into one dataset.
