I would strongly encourage the inclusion of netcdf-4 inside GDAL. Not merely for HDF5, but also for OpenDAP.
+1
I just recently discovered that OpenDAP libraries are now being included built-in in the new netcdf4 : http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/.
yes, but it's an optional component, and when I last checked, no one had built it for Windows. However, it's built on libcurl, which is available for Windows (and already used by GDAL?), so it may be straightforward.
Having OpenDap support in the netcdf4 lib is really nice. If there are problems the folks at opendap.org may well want to help, even if unidata doesn't (unidata has gotten pretty Java-centric lately).
By the way, GDAL/netcdf-4 seems to be my only was of being able to access OpenDAP data from inside R.
Which is why you should use Python (and Rpy) ;-) -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
