Detailed Description

Variables hold multi-dimensional arrays of data.

Variables for a netCDF dataset are defined when the dataset is created, while the netCDF dataset is in define mode. Other variables may be added later by reentering define mode. A netCDF variable has a name, a type, and a shape, which are specified when it is defined. A variable may also have values, which are established later in data mode.

Ordinarily, the name, type, and shape are fixed when the variable is first defined. The name may be changed, but the type and shape of a variable cannot be changed. However, a variable defined in terms of the unlimited dimension can grow without bound in that dimension.

A netCDF variable in an open netCDF dataset is referred to by a small integer called a variable ID.

Variable IDs reflect the order in which variables were defined within a netCDF dataset. Variable IDs are 0, 1, 2,..., in the order in which the variables were defined. A function is available for getting the variable ID from the variable name and vice-versa.

Attributes (see Attributes) may be associated with a variable to specify such properties as units.

Operations supported on variables are:

Language Types Corresponding to netCDF

External Data Types

NetCDF supported six atomic data types through version 3.6.0 (char, byte, short, int, float, and double). Starting with version 4.0, many new atomic and user defined data types are supported (unsigned int types, strings, compound types, variable length arrays, enums, opaque).

The additional data types are only supported in netCDF-4/HDF5 files. To create netCDF-4/HDF5 files, use the HDF5 flag in nc_create. (see nc_create).

NetCDF-3 Classic and 64-Bit Offset Data Types

NetCDF-3 classic and 64-bit offset files support 6 atomic data types, and none of the user defined datatype introduced in NetCDF-4.

The following table gives the netCDF-3 external data types and the corresponding type constants for defining variables in the C interface:

TypeC defineBits
byteNC_BYTE8
charNC_CHAR8
shortNC_SHORT16
intNC_INT32
floatNC_FLOAT32
doubleNC_DOUBLE64

The first column gives the netCDF external data type, which is the same as the CDL data type. The next column gives the corresponding C pre-processor macro for use in netCDF functions (the pre-processor macros are defined in the netCDF C header-file netcdf.h). The last column gives the number of bits used in the external representation of values of the corresponding type.

NetCDF-4 Atomic Types

NetCDF-4 files support all of the atomic data types from netCDF-3, plus additional unsigned integer types, 64-bit integer types, and a string type.

TypeC define

Bits

byteNC_BYTE8
unsigned byte NC_UBYTE^8
char NC_CHAR 8
short NC_SHORT 16
unsigned short NC_USHORT^ 16
int NC_INT 32
unsigned int NC_UINT^ 32
unsigned long long NC_UINT64^ 64
long long NC_INT64^ 64
float NC_FLOAT 32
double NC_DOUBLE 64
char ** NC_STRING^ string length + 1

^This type was introduced in netCDF-4, and is not supported in netCDF classic or 64-bit offset format files, or in netCDF-4 files if they are created with the NC_CLASSIC_MODEL flags.


Function Documentation

int NC_atomictypelen ( nc_type  xtype)

Find the length of a type. Redunant over nctypelen() above.

Definition at line 369 of file dvar.c.

char* NC_atomictypename ( nc_type  xtype)

Get the type name.

Definition at line 397 of file dvar.c.

int nc_def_var ( int  ncid,
const char *  name,
nc_type  xtype,
int  ndims,
const int *  dimidsp,
int *  varidp 
)

Define a new variable.

This function adds a new variable to an open netCDF dataset or group. It returns (as an argument) a variable ID, given the netCDF ID, the variable name, the variable type, the number of dimensions, and a list of the dimension IDs.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().
nameVariable Name.
xtypeData Type of the variable.
ndimsNumber of dimensions for the variable. For example, 2 specifies a matrix, 1 specifies a vector, and 0 means the variable is a scalar with no dimensions. Must not be negative or greater than the predefined constant NC_MAX_VAR_DIMS.
dimidspVector of ndims dimension IDs corresponding to the variable dimensions. For classic model netCDF files, if the ID of the unlimited dimension is included, it must be first. This argument is ignored if ndims is 0. For expanded model netCDF4/HDF5 files, there may be any number of unlimited dimensions, and they may be used in any element of the dimids array.
varidpPointer to location for the returned variable ID.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.
NC_EBADID Bad ncid.
NC_ENOTINDEFINE Not in define mode.
NC_ESTRICTNC3 Attempting netcdf-4 operation on strict nc3 netcdf-4 file.
NC_EMAXVARS NC_MAX_VARS exceeded
NC_EBADTYPE Bad type.
NC_EINVAL Invalid input.
NC_ENAMEINUSE Name already in use.
NC_EPERM Attempt to create object in read-only file.

Example

Here is an example using nc_def_var to create a variable named rh of type double with three dimensions, time, lat, and lon in a new netCDF dataset named foo.nc:

     #include <netcdf.h>
        ...
     int  status;       
     int  ncid;          
     int  lat_dim, lon_dim, time_dim;  
     int  rh_id;                       
     int  rh_dimids[3];                
        ...
     status = nc_create("foo.nc", NC_NOCLOBBER, &ncid);
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);
        ...

     status = nc_def_dim(ncid, "lat", 5L, &lat_dim);
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);
     status = nc_def_dim(ncid, "lon", 10L, &lon_dim);
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);
     status = nc_def_dim(ncid, "time", NC_UNLIMITED, &time_dim);
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);
        ...

     rh_dimids[0] = time_dim;
     rh_dimids[1] = lat_dim;
     rh_dimids[2] = lon_dim;
     status = nc_def_var (ncid, "rh", NC_DOUBLE, 3, rh_dimids, &rh_id);
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);

int nc_free_string ( size_t  len,
char **  data 
)

Free string space allocated by the library.

When you read string type the library will allocate the storage space for the data. This storage space must be freed, so pass the pointer back to this function, when you're done with the data, and it will free the string memory.

Parameters:
lenThe number of character arrays in the array.
dataThe pointer to the data array.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.

Definition at line 530 of file dvar.c.

int nc_get_var ( int  ncid,
int  varid,
void *  ip 
)

Read an entire variable in one call.

This function will read all the values from a netCDF variable of an open netCDF dataset.

This is the simplest interface to use for reading the value of a scalar variable or when all the values of a multidimensional variable can be read at once. The values are read into consecutive locations with the last dimension varying fastest. The netCDF dataset must be in data mode.

Take care when using this function with record variables (variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension). If you try to read all the values of a record variable into an array but there are more records in the file than you assume, more data will be read than you expect, which may cause a segmentation violation. To avoid such problems, it is better to use the nc_get_vara interfaces for variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension.

The functions for types ubyte, ushort, uint, longlong, ulonglong, and string are only available for netCDF-4/HDF5 files.

The nc_get_var() function will read a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().
varidVariable ID
ipPointer where the data will be copied. Memory must be allocated by the user before this function is called.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.
NC_ENOTVAR Variable not found.
NC_ERANGE One or more of the values are out of range.
NC_EINDEFINE Operation not allowed in define mode.
NC_EBADID Bad ncid.

The nc_get_var1() function will read a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

Other nc_get_var1_ functions will convert data to the desired output type as needed.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().
varidVariable ID
indexpIndex vector with one element for each dimension.
ipPointer where the data will be copied. Memory must be allocated by the user before this function is called.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.
NC_ENOTVAR Variable not found.
NC_EINVALCOORDS Index exceeds dimension bound.
NC_ERANGE One or more of the values are out of range.
NC_EINDEFINE Operation not allowed in define mode.

int nc_get_var_double ( int  ncid,
int  varid,
double *  ip 
)

Read an entire variable in one call.

This function will read all the values from a netCDF variable of an open netCDF dataset.

This is the simplest interface to use for reading the value of a scalar variable or when all the values of a multidimensional variable can be read at once. The values are read into consecutive locations with the last dimension varying fastest. The netCDF dataset must be in data mode.

Take care when using this function with record variables (variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension). If you try to read all the values of a record variable into an array but there are more records in the file than you assume, more data will be read than you expect, which may cause a segmentation violation. To avoid such problems, it is better to use the nc_get_vara interfaces for variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension.

The functions for types ubyte, ushort, uint, longlong, ulonglong, and string are only available for netCDF-4/HDF5 files.

The nc_get_var() function will read a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

int nc_get_vara_double ( int  ncid,
int  varid,
const size_t *  startp,
const size_t *  countp,
double *  ip 
)

Read an array of values from a variable.

The array to be read is specified by giving a corner and a vector of edge lengths to Specify a Hyperslab.

The data values are read into consecutive locations with the last dimension varying fastest. The netCDF dataset must be in data mode (for netCDF-4/HDF5 files, the switch to data mode will happen automatically, unless the classic model is used).

The nc_get_vara() function will read a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

Other nc_get_vara_ functions will convert data to the desired output type as needed.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().

The data values are read into consecutive locations with the last dimension varying fastest. The netCDF dataset must be in data mode (for netCDF-4/HDF5 files, the switch to data mode will happen automatically, unless the classic model is used).

The nc_get_vara() function will read a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

Other nc_get_vara_ functions will convert data to the desired output type as needed.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().
varidVariable ID
startpStart vector with one element for each dimension to Specify a Hyperslab.
countpCount vector with one element for each dimension to Specify a Hyperslab.
ipPointer where the data will be copied. Memory must be allocated by the user before this function is called.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.
NC_ENOTVAR Variable not found.
NC_EINVALCOORDS Index exceeds dimension bound.
NC_EEDGE Start+count exceeds dimension bound.
NC_ERANGE One or more of the values are out of range.
NC_EINDEFINE Operation not allowed in define mode.
NC_EBADID Bad ncid.

Example

Here is an example using nc_get_vara_double() to read all the values of the variable named rh from an existing netCDF dataset named foo.nc. For simplicity in this example, we assume that we know that rh is dimensioned with time, lat, and lon, and that there are three time values, five lat values, and ten lon values.

Read a mapped array from a variable.

The nc_get_varm_ type family of functions reads a mapped array section of values from a netCDF variable of an open netCDF dataset. The mapped array section is specified by giving a corner, a vector of edge lengths, a stride vector, and an index mapping vector. The index mapping vector is a vector of integers that specifies the mapping between the dimensions of a netCDF variable and the in-memory structure of the internal data array. No assumptions are made about the ordering or length of the dimensions of the data array. The netCDF dataset must be in data mode.

The functions for types ubyte, ushort, uint, longlong, ulonglong, and string are only available for netCDF-4/HDF5 files.

The nc_get_varm() function will read a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().

int nc_put_var ( int  ncid,
int  varid,
const void *  op 
)

Write an entire variable with one call.

The nc_put_var_ type family of functions write all the values of a variable into a netCDF variable of an open netCDF dataset. This is the simplest interface to use for writing a value in a scalar variable or whenever all the values of a multidimensional variable can all be written at once. The values to be written are associated with the netCDF variable by assuming that the last dimension of the netCDF variable varies fastest in the C interface. The values are converted to the external data type of the variable, if necessary.

Take care when using this function with record variables (variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension). If you try to write all the values of a record variable into a netCDF file that has no record data yet (hence has 0 records), nothing will be written. Similarly, if you try to write all the values of a record variable but there are more records in the file than you assume, more in-memory data will be accessed than you supply, which may result in a segmentation violation. To avoid such problems, it is better to use the nc_put_vara interfaces for variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension.

The functions for types ubyte, ushort, uint, longlong, ulonglong, and string are only available for netCDF-4/HDF5 files.

The nc_put_var() function will write a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

int nc_put_var_double ( int  ncid,
int  varid,
const double *  op 
)

Write an entire variable with one call.

The nc_put_var_ type family of functions write all the values of a variable into a netCDF variable of an open netCDF dataset. This is the simplest interface to use for writing a value in a scalar variable or whenever all the values of a multidimensional variable can all be written at once. The values to be written are associated with the netCDF variable by assuming that the last dimension of the netCDF variable varies fastest in the C interface. The values are converted to the external data type of the variable, if necessary.

Take care when using this function with record variables (variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension). If you try to write all the values of a record variable into a netCDF file that has no record data yet (hence has 0 records), nothing will be written. Similarly, if you try to write all the values of a record variable but there are more records in the file than you assume, more in-memory data will be accessed than you supply, which may result in a segmentation violation. To avoid such problems, it is better to use the nc_put_vara interfaces for variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension.

The functions for types ubyte, ushort, uint, longlong, ulonglong, and string are only available for netCDF-4/HDF5 files.

The nc_put_var() function will write a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().
varidVariable ID
opPointer from where the data will be copied.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.
NC_ENOTVAR Variable not found.
NC_EINVALCOORDS Index exceeds dimension bound.
NC_EEDGE Start+count exceeds dimension bound.
NC_ERANGE One or more of the values are out of range.
NC_EINDEFINE Operation not allowed in define mode.

Write an entire variable with one call.

The nc_put_var_ type family of functions write all the values of a variable into a netCDF variable of an open netCDF dataset. This is the simplest interface to use for writing a value in a scalar variable or whenever all the values of a multidimensional variable can all be written at once. The values to be written are associated with the netCDF variable by assuming that the last dimension of the netCDF variable varies fastest in the C interface. The values are converted to the external data type of the variable, if necessary.

Take care when using this function with record variables (variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension). If you try to write all the values of a record variable into a netCDF file that has no record data yet (hence has 0 records), nothing will be written. Similarly, if you try to write all the values of a record variable but there are more records in the file than you assume, more in-memory data will be accessed than you supply, which may result in a segmentation violation. To avoid such problems, it is better to use the nc_put_vara interfaces for variables that use the NC_UNLIMITED dimension.

The functions for types ubyte, ushort, uint, longlong, ulonglong, and string are only available for netCDF-4/HDF5 files.

The nc_put_var() function will write a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().
varidVariable ID
opPointer from where the data will be copied.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.
NC_ENOTVAR Variable not found.
NC_EINVALCOORDS Index exceeds dimension bound.
NC_EEDGE Start+count exceeds dimension bound.
NC_ERANGE One or more of the values are out of range.
NC_EINDEFINE Operation not allowed in define mode.

The values to be written are associated with the netCDF variable by assuming that the last dimension of the netCDF variable varies fastest in the C interface. The netCDF dataset must be in data mode. The array to be written is specified by giving a corner and a vector of edge lengths to Specify a Hyperslab.

The functions for types ubyte, ushort, uint, longlong, ulonglong, and string are only available for netCDF-4/HDF5 files.

The nc_put_var() function will write a variable of any type, including user defined type. For this function, the type of the data in memory must match the type of the variable - no data conversion is done.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().
varidVariable ID
startpStart vector with one element for each dimension to Specify a Hyperslab.
countpCount vector with one element for each dimension to Specify a Hyperslab.
opPointer where the data will be copied. Memory must be allocated by the user before this function is called.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.
NC_ENOTVAR Variable not found.
NC_EINVALCOORDS Index exceeds dimension bound.
NC_EEDGE Start+count exceeds dimension bound.
NC_ERANGE One or more of the values are out of range.

int nc_rename_var ( int  ncid,
int  varid,
const char *  name 
)

Rename a variable.

This function changes the name of a netCDF variable in an open netCDF file or group. You cannot rename a variable to have the name of any existing variable.

For classic format, 64-bit offset format, and netCDF-4/HDF5 with classic mode, if the new name is longer than the old name, the netCDF dataset must be in define mode.

Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().
varidVariable ID
nameNew name of the variable.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.
NC_EBADID Bad ncid.
NC_ENOTVAR Invalid variable ID.
NC_EBADNAME Bad name.
NC_EMAXNAME Name is too long.
NC_ENAMEINUSE Name in use.
NC_ENOMEM Out of memory.

Example

Here is an example using nc_rename_var to rename the variable rh to rel_hum in an existing netCDF dataset named foo.nc:

     #include <netcdf.h>
        ...
     int  status; 
     int  ncid;   
     int  rh_id;  
        ...
     status = nc_open("foo.nc", NC_WRITE, &ncid);
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);
        ...
     status = nc_redef(ncid); 
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);
     status = nc_inq_varid (ncid, "rh", &rh_id);
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);
     status = nc_rename_var (ncid, rh_id, "rel_hum");
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);
     status = nc_enddef(ncid);
     if (status != NC_NOERR) handle_error(status);

int nc_set_var_chunk_cache ( int  ncid,
int  varid,
size_t  size,
size_t  nelems,
float  preemption 
)
Parameters:
ncidNetCDF or group ID, from a previous call to nc_open(), nc_create(), nc_def_grp(), or associated inquiry functions such as nc_inq_ncid().
varidVariable ID
sizeThe total size of the raw data chunk cache, in bytes.
nelemsThe number of chunk slots in the raw data chunk cache.
preemptionThe preemption, a value between 0 and 1 inclusive that indicates how much chunks that have been fully read are favored for preemption. A value of zero means fully read chunks are treated no differently than other chunks (the preemption is strictly LRU) while a value of one means fully read chunks are always preempted before other chunks.
Returns:
NC_NOERR No error.
NC_EBADID Bad ncid.
NC_ENOTVAR Invalid variable ID.
NC_ESTRICTNC3 Attempting netcdf-4 operation on strict nc3 netcdf-4 file.
NC_EINVAL Invalid input
