Hi,

 

I don't have a solution for this, but a solution would also be very
handy for ncWMS, to support glob aggregations, (i.e. to specify an
aggregated dataset by doing something like the following:

 

NetcdfDataset.openDataset("/path/to/*.nc");

 

At the moment ncWMS does the glob aggregation in its own object tree,
but it would be useful to be able to treat the aggregation as a
NetcdfDataset.  Some of this code could potentially be re-used.

Hello,

Is it possible to aggregate NetCDF datasets from within my
application--that is, without creating an NcML document for them
beforehand?

Suppose I want to write a function that takes 2 arbitrary NetcdfFile
objects and returns another NetcdfFile object that is the union of them.
What's the best way to do this?

Thanks,
Christian Ward-Garrison
