netCDF is a set of interfaces for array-oriented data access and a freely-distributed collection of data access libraries for C, Fortran, C++, Java, and other languages. The netCDF libraries support a machine-independent format for representing scientific data. Together, the interfaces, libraries, and format support the creation, access, and sharing of scientific data.

NetCDF data is:

  • Self-Describing A netCDF file includes information about the data it contains.
  • Portable A netCDF file can be accessed by computers with different ways of storing integers, characters, and floating-point numbers.
  • Direct-access A small subset of a large dataset may be accessed efficiently, without first reading through all the preceding data.
  • Append-able Data may be appended to a properly structured netCDF file without copying the dataset or redefining its structure.
  • Shareable One writer and multiple readers may simultaneously access the same netCDF file.
  • Archivable Access to all earlier forms of netCDF data will be supported by current and future versions of the software.

The netCDF software was developed by Glenn Davis, Russ Rew, Steve Emmerson, John Caron, Harvey Davies, and Ed Hartnett at the Unidata Program Center in Boulder, Colorado, with contributions from many other netCDF users.

Although its likely, that some file extensions may be missing from the list of associated file extensions with the application, yet they can be opened, be part of, or otherwise be associated with the program.
