Re: [visad] help

Hi all....


Well McV and IDV have lots of code demonstrating that.
IDV goes one step further to use ucar.n2.dataset.grid.GridDataset which uses NetcdfFile class to create grids which it further connects with visad using ucar.visad.data.GeoGridFlatField. That is pretty complicated in the sense, you know how to extend the ucar.nc2.dataset.CoordSysBuilder to insert your dataset file in that. In McV, it is plain NetcdfFile class being used almost in the new development may be related to S-NPP datasources or even the Hydra stuff. The new incarnation of Hydra (Hydra 2), uses McV code based for creating Multispectral datasources 
for calipso, cloudsat, modis, etc.
Coming back to what Devanshi is concerned about. Actually as far as I know she is trying with Meghatropiques dataset. It is a very special satellite as it provides all the acquisitions in tropical region specifically dedicated to study the water cycle of 
tropical region. It is collaboration between ISRO and CNES.
I would suggest Devanshi, you should just first try to see how you are reading variables. The code snippet that you sent, in that you are reading the "Science Data" as a variable but it is group. You should first try the following method: 

List<Variable> var_list = ncFile.getVariables();

It gives the list of all the variables in the hdf-5 file.
Then you can pick the variable of interest from that list and apply
float samples[] = variable.read(float.class); //assuming data type is float

I hope it helps.

I believe the main issue here is that the code in the VisAD library
for HDF files has not been maintained by the original authors.  This
also is true of the netCDF adapter ("Plain").  Unfortunately, this
means that for files that use newer features in these formats, the
code no longer works.

I do not have any solutions, other than as Ghansham suggests, using
the "official" releases of the respective libraries and then building
your own VisAD Data objects...

Hi.......This is my program,
