General Module Function
This is a deprecated module that has been supplanted byLoad_EVS_Field
Read_netCDF reads a dataset from a netCDF file into an EVS field. If the netCDF file was written with the Write_netCDF module, then Read_netCDF outputs the same object that was written (a field or other EVS object). If the file contains only a standard netCDF object, without EVS header information, Read_netCDF produces an object containing the data elements of the netCDF file.
As of Version 6.0 the output of Krig_3D_Geology and Spline_Geology can (and should be) saved as a netCDF file using Write_netCDF.
We strongly recommend that you convert older .egf files to the newer format using the following simple process:
Module Input Ports
The Read_netcdf module is shown above. Read Field has no input ports. It obtains the Field input data by reading a file with a file browser.
Module Output Ports
Read_netCDF has two output ports. The first port (closest to the left) passes the mesh and data components to other modules which accept Field data types. The second port is used to send data directly to the viewer for rendering.
Module Control Panel
The user interface for Read_netCDF consists solely of the file browser shown above. The file browser is used for selecting the file. Double clicking on a filename or selecting a file name and choosing OK reads the selected Field file into memory and closes the file browser. After the file has been read into memory, the mesh and data components are passed to any downstream modules in the application. Selecting a different file, after one has been read in, will replace the first file's mesh and data components with the new file's mesh and data components and all modules will be updated with the new data.
