James, In this case, it may be simpler, easier and more efficient to simply call the NetCDF library directly, rather than going through GDAL. Your particular file sounds like a 3D dataset, which is stretching the bounds of what GDAL is designed to handle, namely rasters.
The NetCDF API is relatively straightforward. There is documentation and examples. -Ben > -----Original Message----- > From: gdal-dev-boun...@lists.osgeo.org [mailto:gdal-dev- > boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of James Sulzman > Sent: Monday, August 15, 2011 12:09 PM > To: gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org > Subject: [gdal-dev] Help with GDAL & Visual Studio 2010 & netCDF > > Hi All, > > I could use a little help, and it would be greatly appreciated. > > Goal: Write a c++ program in MS Visual Studio 2010 (on win7 x64 machine) > that reads in a netCDF file.
