RE: Need help converting ascii to netcdf files » txt2nc.py

python script to create the nc file - Ralf Mueller, 2015-09-11 12:19

root.description = 'Example text input via numpy and netCDF4'
root.createDimension('lon',866)
root.createDimension('lat',654)
latitudes = root.createVariable('lat', 'f4', ('lat',))
langitudes = root.createVariable('lon', 'f4', ('lon',))

langitudes[:] = lons[0:866]
f = open("in.txt")
