I believe the AIA standard uses floats and not doubles. None of the AIA variables are doubles. Steve From: "Kassan, Scott - OI Analytical" <Scott.Kassan@xxxxxxx> To: "'netcdfgroup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'" <netcdfgroup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: 04/13/2011 06:06 PM Subject: [netcdfgroup] Chemstation can't read my files Sent by: netcdfgroup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I'm having trouble generating files that Chemstation, and I assume other data consumers, has trouble with. The trouble lies in the array of intensity_values. I'm writing doubles to that array. The array is identified as containing doubles in the variables definition section. However, when Chemstation reads the values, it appears to be interpreting them as longs. But AMDIS seems to be able to read the values correctly. I've tried adding the global attribute raw_data_intensity_format = "Double", but that did not help. Below is an excerpt of an ncdump of one of my data files. Any help steering me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. netcdf 100ppm_010 { dimensions: point_number = UNLIMITED ; // (5182 currently) scan_number = 845 ; variables: double scan_acquisition_time(scan_number) ; int actual_scan_number(scan_number) ; double total_intensity(scan_number) ; total_intensity:units = "Arbitrary Intensity Units" ; double mass_range_min(scan_number) ; double mass_range_max(scan_number) ; int scan_index(scan_number) ; int point_count(scan_number) ; int flag_count(scan_number) ; short mass_values(point_number) ; mass_values:units = "M/Z" ; mass_values:scale_factor = 1. ; double intensity_values(point_number) ; intensity_values:units = "Arbitrary Intensity Units" ; intensity_values:scale_factor = 1. ; // global attributes: :ms_template_revision = "1.0.1" ; :dataset_completeness = "C1+C2" ; :netcdf_revision = "3.6.1 of Mar 7 2006 14:13:30 $" ; :experiment_date_time_stamp = "20100911172102+0000" ; :netcdf_file_date_time_stamp = "20100911172102+0000" ; :experiment_type = "Centroided Mass Spectrum" ; :languages = "English" ; :test_comments = "100 ppm" ; :actual_runtime_length = 89.974755 ; :global_mass_min = 7 ; :global_mass_max = 199 ; ... data: scan_acquisition_time = 0, 0.106479, 0.212958, 0.319437, 0.425916, 0.532395, 0.638874, 0.745353, 0.851832, 0.958311, 1.06479, 1.171269, 1.277748, 1.384227, 1.490706, 1.597185, 1.703664, 1.810143, 1.916622, 2.023101, 2.12958, 2.236059, 2.342538, 2.449017, 2.555496, 2.661975, 2.768454, ... actual_scan_number = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, ... total_intensity = 10.8773901760578, 18.6721186637878, 17.6812633574009, 17.0867496728897, 8.80760312080383, 16.2280081063509, 14.8187923133373, 9.09385061264038, 11.2296939492226, 13.2114050388336, 11.2737315893173, 12.9912151098251, 12.7490055561066, 15.1710965037346, 14.180241510272, ... mass_range_min = 45, 43, 43, 43, 42, 42, 42, 43, 43, 43, 42, 43, 43, 42, 43, 43, 45, 43, 45, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 42, 42, 42, 42, 43, 43, 43, 45, 43, 43, 45, 43, 43, 45, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 43, 42, 43, 42, 43, 43, 43, 43, 42, 55, 43, 42, 45, 43, 45, 45, 45, 43, 42, 43, 43, ... mass_range_max = 70, 166, 147, 154, 46, 97, 66, 45, 105, 76, 45, 131, 119, 143, 154, 127, 55, 117, 69, 69, 163, 92, 141, 146, 133, 127, 76, 57, 150, 66, 146, 146, 91, 132, 118, 56, 141, 118, 81, 141, 132, 141, 77, 132, 132, 70, 56, 125, 121, 57, 105, 145, 57, 68, 136, 133, 101, 93, 55, 57, ... scan_index = 0, 5, 14, 22, 30, 33, 40, 46, 48, 53, 58, 61, 65, 70, 76, 83, 88, 90, 95, 99, 102, 111, 117, 123, 127, 135, 141, 145, 150, 158, 164, 173, 178, 183, 186, 190, 194, 202, 207, 215, 220, 227, 236, 242, 249, 256, 262, 267, 274, 279, 284, 293, 302, 307, 312, 320, 329, 334, 337, ... point_count = 5, 9, 8, 8, 3, 7, 6, 2, 5, 5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 5, 2, 5, 4, 3, 9, 6, 6, 4, 8, 6, 4, 5, 8, 6, 9, 5, 5, 3, 4, 4, 8, 5, 8, 5, 7, 9, 6, 7, 7, 6, 5, 7, 5, 5, 9, 9, 5, 5, 8, 9, 5, 3, 3, 4, 7, 5, 6, 4, 4, 5, 13, 4, 3, 6, 6, 7, 5, 4, 4, 2, 8, 7, 7, 8, 5, 5, 8, 4, 5, 5, 2, 3, 6, 5, 5, 6, 11, ... flag_count = 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ... mass_values = 45, 55, 57, 60, 70, 43, 45, 46, 55, 57, 70, 110, 154, 166, 43, 45, 46, 55, 57, 70, 110, 147, 43, 45, 55, 57, 69, 83, 150, 154, 42, 45, 46, 42, 43, 45, 57, 66, 73, 97, 42, 43, 45, 52, 55, 66, 43, 45, 43, 45, 57, 80, 105, 43, 45, 46, 61, 76, 42, 43, 45, 43, 45, 67, 131, 43, 45, 79, ... intensity_values = 5.5487904548645, 2.46612882614136, 1.56334948539734, 0.462399154901505, 0.836722254753113, 4.60197257995605, 6.07724618911743, 1.32114052772522, 2.31199598312378, 1.07893133163452, 0.814703285694122, 0.616532206535339, 1.65142548084259, 0.198171079158783, 5.24052381515503, ... ***************************************************************** Scott Kassan Senior Software Engineer ITT | OI Analytical 2148 Pelham Parkway Building 400 Pelham, AL 35124 T: (205) 733-6900 x259 F: (205) 733-6919 Email: scott.kassan@xxxxxxx ***************************************************************** This e-mail and any files transmitted with it may be proprietary and are intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
