Hi friends,
I have imported txt format station profile data of temp, sal, no3, no2, u and v to odv4 and export the same as netcdf.
I assigned this netcdf file for computation in ferret. But lat, long and depth is not properly assigned. How we can solve this type of problem.
Thanks
Muraleedhran

Hi Muraleedhran,
I have to admit that I have very little experience with the Ferret visualization tool so it will take me quite some time to figure out why Ferret does not assign these netCDF variables properly. If you have any more insights about what's the problem and how it could be solved, please tell me.
Cheers, Stephan

Dear Muraleedhran,
For me the software Ferret seems to be especially useful when it comes to visualize gridded data and netCDF files that hold gridded data, respectively. NetCDF files written by ODV have a different structure. Here we usually store multiple irregular distributed points of observations. The structure of ODV netCDF files is similar to the format of ARGO netCDF files. Longitude, latitude, depth and/or time aren’t dimensions but only defined as variables for each observation. Means, it will be a bit more complicated for Ferret to visualize these files’ content. Nevertheless I’m pretty sure Ferret can handle ODV netCDF files. Did you read Chapter 8 “Working with special data sets” and 8.3 “Vertical Profiles” in the Ferret users guide ? There, you should be able to find a solution.
Cheers, Stephan
