Dear all, I just released version 1.0 of the RNetCDF R package on CRAN (Comprehensive R Archive Network, http://cran.at.r-project.org/) under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). This package provides an interface to Unidata's NetCDF library functions (version 3) and furthermore access to Unidata's udunits calendar conversions. The routines and the documentation follow the NetCDF and udunits C interface, so the corresponding manuals can be consulted for more detailed information. The main aims of this package are: - to provide full read/write access to all NetCDF datasets (supporting all external NetCDF data types) - to provide a low level interface which allows the user to write his own (customized) NetCDF read/write functions in a simple way This package requires Unidata's NetCDF and the undunits library already installed on the system. Feedback is greatly appreciated. Pavel I would like to thank Juerg Schmidli for his excellent comments and suggestions during the development process of this package and This Rutishauser for testing the package from the user's perspective. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pavel Michna (PhD Student) Tel: +41 (0)31 631 85 42 Climatology and Meteorology (KLIMET) Fax: +41 (0)31 631 85 11 Institute of Geography E-Mail: michna@xxxxxxxxxxxxx University of Bern Hallerstrasse 12 CH-3012 Bern/Switzerland ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ This mail was sent through IMP at http://mail.unibe.ch
