John, Wow, we have the NetCDF subsetter service set up for this data, but I never knew that you could click on the "as point dataset" link and get a different interface which included CSV output! Unfortunately, the "as point dataset" form fails for our data because we only have a single lat and a single lon value for each time series. If I type in the lat, lon values of 33.6487, -78.8490 http://coast-enviro.er.usgs.gov/thredds/ncss/grid/DATAFILES/MYRTLEBEACH/7222sc-a.nc/pointDataset.htm I get back the error: Requested Lat/Lon Point (+33.64N 78.84W) is not contained in the Data Data Bounding Box = lat= [33.64,33.64] lon= [-78.84,-78.84] It would be nice if this worked for "single point" grid datasets. Actually, it would be nice if the NetCDF Subset Service would not require entering a lon/lat value if only a single value is present in the dataset.
