[GRASSLIST:7626] Re: netCDF import not working

[Thomas Adams]

Jason,

I posted a message about this problem a couple of months ago and did not get an answer. 
Same situation with me with the Mac OS X build — I have the same problem on Linux as well. 
My work-around was to use the netcdf utility ncdump to write an ascii file; then I wrote a Perl 
script to reformat the data into a GRASS grid in ascii format; then import. A kluge, but I as 
desperate…
