Method Detail

isValidFile

public static boolean isValidFile(NetcdfDataset ds)

isMine

public boolean isMine(NetcdfDataset ds)

Description copied from interface: TypedDatasetFactoryIF

Determine if this dataset belongs to you

Specified by:

isMine in interface TypedDatasetFactoryIF

Parameters:

ds - examine this NetcdfDataset to see if it belongs to this class.

Returns:

true if this class knows how to create a TypedDataset out of this NetcdfDataset.

open

Description copied from interface: TypedDatasetFactoryIF

Open a NetcdfDataset as a TypedDataset.

Specified by:

open in interface TypedDatasetFactoryIF

Parameters:

ncd - already opened NetcdfDataset.

task - use may cancel

errlog - place errors here

Returns:

a subclass of TypedDataset

Throws:

IOException - on error

getScientificDataType
