Hello,

I have been googleing to find a solution to convert a couple hundreds of
ASCII files to Netcdf however, the solutions I found don't really fit into
my data set. So, I wanted to ask in here.

My ASCII files come from a GWC (generic water column) data. I paste the
header and first two lines of the data below;

/# -----------------------------------------------------
# Source Files Information
# Index Filename
#  0    I:\raw\234.all
# -----------------------------------------------------
# Field Definitions
#  0    Sample File ID (see above)
#  1    Sample Position X
#  2    Sample Position Y
#  3    Sample Position Z
#  4    Sample Value (Amplitude)
#  5    Sample Time 
#  6    Sample Range 
#  7    Ship Position X
#  8    Ship Position Y
#  9    Ship Heading (degs)
# 10    Ship Pitch (degs)
# 11    Ship Roll (degs)
# 12    Transducer Depth (m)
# 13    Sound Speed (m/s)
# 14    Ping Number X
# 15    Ping Time X
# 16    Sample Number X
# 17    Beam Number X
# 18    Beam Azimuth X
# 19    Beam Elevation X
#0           1           2        3        4       5      6           7         
 
8      9     10     11     12      13    14             15   16  17     18

Any suggestions to convert this to netcdf? I installed ferret but couldn't
manage to write the suitable code.

Thanks!
