Technical documentation

Ncview is a visual browser for netCDF format files. Typically you would use ncview to get a quick and easy, push-button look at your netCDF files. You can view simple movies of the data, view along various dimensions, take a look at the actual data values, change color maps, invert the data, etc.

The 2.1.8 release dates from 2017 and as of September 2021 there haven't been any further releases. Hence there is no guarantee that this package can be supported in the future as it may become incompatible with newer versions of libraries that it uses.

EasyBuild

Version 2.1.8 for the CPE 21.08

  • The EasyConfig is a mix of the CSCS and default EasyBuilders one (as the latter had a more complete list of dependencies), and with some additional documentation added.

Version 2.1.8 for CPE 21.12, 22.06, 22.08, 22.12

  • Switched the download location to fossies.org to avoid having to use FTP.
  • (2023-09-14): Switched back to FTP as the fossie URL is not longer valid

Version 2.1.9 from 23.09 on

  • Trivial port of the EasyConfig except that the download link has changed again.

Archived EasyConfigs

The EasyConfigs below are additonal easyconfigs that are not directly available on the system for installation. Users are advised to use the newer ones and these archived ones are unsupported. They are still provided as a source of information should you need this, e.g., to understand the configuration that was used for earlier work on the system.
