Class NetcdfMetadata.Dimension

Object
  NetcdfMetadata.Dimension

Enclosing class:

NetcdfMetadata

public static class NetcdfMetadata.Dimension
extends Object

Holds the attribute names describing a simple latitude, longitude, and vertical bounding box. Values are:

Attributes	NetcdfMetadata.LATITUDE	NetcdfMetadata.LONGITUDE	NetcdfMetadata.VERTICAL	NetcdfMetadata.TIME
MINIMUM	"geospatial_lat_min"	"geospatial_lon_min"	"geospatial_vertical_min"	"time_coverage_start"
MAXIMUM	"geospatial_lat_max"	"geospatial_lon_max"	"geospatial_vertical_max"	"time_coverage_end"
SPAN				"time_coverage_duration"
RESOLUTION	"geospatial_lat_resolution"	"geospatial_lon_resolution"	"geospatial_vertical_resolution"	"time_coverage_resolution"
UNITS	"geospatial_lat_units"	"geospatial_lon_units"	"geospatial_vertical_units"	"time_coverage_units"
POSITIVE			"geospatial_vertical_positive"

Note: The member names in this class are upper-cases because they should be considered as constants. For example NetcdfMetadata.LATITUDE.MINIMUM maps exactly to the "geospatial_lat_min" string and nothing else. A lower-case minimum member name could be misleading since it would suggest that the field contains the actual name value rather than the key by which the value is identified in a NetCDF file.
