General Module Function
The Write_netCDF module creates a netCDF file containing all the mesh and nodal data component information sent to the input port. NetCDF files are similar to UCD files but they are in binary format and therefore cannot be edited. This module is useful for writing the output of modules which manipulate or interpolate data (Krig_3D , Krig_2D , etc.) to netCDF files so that the data will not need to be processed in the future. The process data in the netCDF can be read using Read_netCDF, which is much faster than reprocessing the data. Similarly, since these files are binary, they will read faster than a UCD 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 Write netCDF module is shown above. The module has one input port which accepts any mesh and nodal data.
Module Output Ports
Write netCDF has no output ports.
Write netCDF Control Panel
The Write netCDF control panel is shown above. Clicking on the Write netCDF File push button opens a standard windows file browser. The filename and location can be specified in this browser. Clicking on the OK button tells Write netCDF to create the netCDF file. The user is not warned if the file they are creating currently exists. The file will be overwritten.
