Re: how to add the many netcdf files

[Steve Cousins <cousins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Yogesh,

I'd recommend looking into using a Descriptor file to do this.  Check out
the documentation on Descriptor files and see if that helps.  I actually
just sent an example of one ( the Linux version) to the list due to a
problem I'm having with one.  You might be able to use it to start with.
I think it fits well with what you are trying to do.

If you still want to just create one file take a look at the netCDF
Operator tools at nco.sourceforge.net.  you can use ncks to do what you
want.  

Of the two I'd probably recommend using the descriptor file.

Good luck,

Steve
