+NetCDF (network Common Data Form) is an interface for array-oriented
+data access and a library that provides an implementation of the
+interface. The netCDF library also defines a machine-independent
+format for representing scientific data. Together, the interface,
+library, and format support the creation, access, and sharing of
+scientific data. The netCDF software was developed at the Unidata
+Program Center in Boulder, Colorado.
