I am in the process of converting from Matlab to R, but a major sticking point for me at the moment is accessing data via OPeNDAP.
After several hours of searching, I found that other people have discussed this functionality in the past, but it does not appear to have yet been developed. One programmer, Luke Miller, has managed a work-around by downloading ascii data from an OPeNDAP site ( http://lukemiller.org/index.php/2011/02/accessing-noaa-tide-data-with-r/), but direct access to the netcdf files would reduce data download requirements greatly. I'm sure this must be a common requirement, particularly among earth scientists - perhaps they are all still using Matlab. Does anyone have have a solution? Or maybe I am just not proficient enough at finding solutions on the R-network... Thanks in advance for your time, Phil.
