public class GradsArray

extends SDArray

An implementation of the DODS Array data type.

See Also:

Only certain arrays are legal: a 3 or 4 dimensional array that represents actual data, where the array dimensions are either [time][lev][lat][lon] or [time][lat][lon]; or a 1 dimensional array that represents the grid definition of lon, lat, lev or time. All values are Float32, except time which is a Float64 using the COARDS time convention. *, Serialized Form

Method Detail

read

public boolean read(java.lang.String datasetName,
                    java.lang.Object specialO)
             throws NoSuchVariableException,
                    java.io.IOException,
                    java.io.EOFException

Just a dummy procedure. Data is actually read by the serialize() method, so it can be written directly to the output stream.

NoSuchVariableException

java.io.IOException

java.io.EOFException

calculateBounds

public Bounds.Grid calculateBounds()

Translates dimension information stored in this object into a Bounds.Grid object for the Dataset.getSubset() method.
