Hi Eric, None of the data formats you listed are client-server. They are all on-disk file formats. The only client-server protocols from the list on the netcdf-java home page are: OPeNDAP and ADDE. A few OPeNDAP URLs: http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/dodsC/fmrc/NCEP/GFS/CONUS_191km/files/GFS_CONUS_191km_20090206_0000.grib1 http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/dodsC/nexrad/composite/gini/ntp/4km/20090206/Level3_Composite_ntp_4km_20090206_2325.gini http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/dodsC/station/metar/Surface_METAR_20090205_0000.nc http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/dodsC/satellite/3.9/AK-REGIONAL_8km/20090206/AK-REGIONAL_8km_3.9_20090206_2300.gini Ethan Eric Davies wrote: > Hi, > > One question and one request. > > Question: The Netcdf Java library home page indicates support for a > bunch of data formats.
