Accessing data using your copy of ferret

  • COARDS-compliant programs would prefer months since 0000-01-01. Click here to change the units accordingly. DODS allows one to give a application a url and have it directly download data. To read this data into ferret use 
    set data "http://maproom.meteorwanda.gov.rw/SOURCES/.Rwanda/.WASP/.queriesENACTS/districtquery+.dist_name/1+index/.dabaseline_full/ngridtable/dods"
    If ferret refuses to read the file, saying 
    ** netCDF error: Invalid Argument
 is this a CDF file ?
    it is quite possible that you can use set data after you download the netcdf file.

    If you have questions, comments, or problems please use the help@iri link. This page will evolve as we learn more about how Ferret handles data downloads, and your help pointing out problems is much appreciated.

    There is a bug in ferret which is corrected in release 6.0 (see notes about "nonstandard calendar axes"). Please upgrade if you are using monthly data.
