Hi Matt, You can find info on using the C API to access different compression filters here: * https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs There is an entry on the left-hand side titled 'Filter Support in netCDF-4 (Enhanced)'. I would provide the direct link but it may change in the next hour or so, as I push out the next version of netCDF-C. The Fortran interface will follow; I would expect that release this week, except for the US Thanksgiving holiday, so next week at the latest. -Ward On Nov 19, 2018, 8:23 AM -0700, Thompson, Matt (GSFC-610.1)[SCIENCE SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS INC] <matthew.thompson@xxxxxxxx>, wrote: > All, > > This is a bit of a general question inspired by going to the > "Compression for Scientific Data" tutorial at SC18 last week.
