Global Data Archive: Software for Data Analysis
This page provides access to www sites that provide software to analyze data. You may also find the software provided for analyzing gridded netCDF files useful.
Software to access "self-describing file format" files:
- MATLAB scripts for reading and writing data in netCDF.
- MATLAB scripts for reading FITS-format files.
- MATLAB OPeNDAP/DODS access.
- MATLAB code for reading data written in hierarchical data format (HDF).
- NOAA CDC FORTRAN and IDL routines to read netCDF files.
- netCDF (command line) operators (NCOs) to manipulate netCDF and HDF files.
- ASCII dumps of netCDF files (how to read them).
- GrADS command lines for reading a netCDF file.
- NCAR command line (NCL) software to manipulate netCDF, HDF, GRIB format files
External www sites:
- "Matlab Tools for Oceanographic Analysis" are provided by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and the U.S. Geological Survey
- "Pyclimate" performs SVD, EOFs, filtering, ... using the Python programming language.
- NOAA CDC provides both FORTRAN and IDL routines to read netCDF files.
