To convert a GRADS ctl binary data file to netCDF
Added by Z Z over 13 years ago
Dear CDO community,
I'm doing the conversion of GRADS binary file into netCDF format. Here are what I did and what I got,
random@Z:~/topo/ht$ cdo -f nc import_binary -i ht.ctl ht.nc Use commandline option -h for help. Error (operatorInqModID) : operator missing! ht.ctl is a file on disk!
The GrADS data descriptor ctl file is as below,
random@Z:~/topo/ht$ cat ht.ctl dset ^ht.dta undef 0.0 * xdef 3600 linear 0.05 0.1 ydef 1500 linear -74.95 0.1 zdef 1 levels 2.50 tdef 1 linear 01jan1979 1yr * vars 1 ht 1 0 depth endvars
Anybody get any idea what is going on here? Thanks a lot!
-Zach

The option "-i" is not part of the syntax, so it should work without it:
cdo -f nc import_binary ht.ctl ht.nc
