I am trying to download and open an on-line netcdf file. I'm using Windows XP and R 2.11.1
Here's my script library(ncdf) link <- "http://ibis.grdl.noaa.gov/SAT/SeaLevelRise/slr/slr_sla_gbl_free_all_66.nc"; dest <- "C:/temp/slr_sla_gbl_free_all_66.nc" download.file(url=link,destfile=dest) nc1 <- open.ncdf(dest) The file appears in my C:/temp directory, however I can not open() it, I get this error message: > nc1 <- open.ncdf(dest) Error in open.ncdf(dest) : Error in open.ncdf trying to open file C:/temp/slr_sla_gbl_free_all_66.nc > I can manually download and save the netcdf file and then open it. I'd like to be able to automate the download and open process within my script.
