(Say now I have five dimensions: time, longitude, latitude, layers and pollutant concentration, can I just import longitude, latitude, and concentration?)

Current netcdf reader can’t select dimension when it reads more than three, is there any other way that can choose specific dimensions data to import?.Are there any other available packages or other readers that can handle multi-dimension netcdf data in Paraview?

PARAVIEW NETCDF WINDOWS
But I noticed that the vtkNetcdfReader can’t take files that contain more than three dimensions(time included), and when I import my file on Windows version of Paraview 5.6, the program quitted unexpectedly, while on Linux version it gave errors like:
PARAVIEW NETCDF INSTALL
Install netcdf4-python in this environment:ĢC. In the Anaconda prompt(console), I created a Python3.7 environment in conda:ĢB.I installed first ParaView 5.8.1 (which works with Python3.7).Should this be useful, my conda and ParaView configuration (on Windows10): This filter is based on an older Python script I wrote, but it’s a lot more user-friendly - you can see the old script for example in this 2016 video: Particles simulation of North Atlantic salinity at 20m depth - YouTube or this newer one A tropical-like cyclone in the Mediterranean Sea - YouTube where the date is in the lower left corner, to get an image how it works. The filter uses the netcdf4-python module, which you can easily install via Anaconda:Ĭonda install -c anaconda netcdf4 ( Netcdf4 :: ) I put it on GitHub with instructions and example files: GitHub - FeliciaBrisc/ParaView-NetCDF-Date-And-Time-Plugin If you wish to avoid building from source, I just wrote a user-friendly Python filter that adds date (DD/MM/YYYY) and time (hours:min::sec) to NetCDF files, so you just need to load it via the Plugin Manager in a single step. I haven’t used that plugin, but I think you will need to build ParaView from source - see this forum entry: NETCDF Time Annotation
