For example, using erddap I downloaded, using the url below, 6 months of chlorophyll data from the equatorial Pacific into a file on my computer (the url below generates a file called nesdisVHNSQchlaMonthly_xxxx_xxxx_xxxx.nc where xxxx are randomly generated characters.)<br><br>I am able to load this data into qGIS using the add raster layer command and file as the source type, but I was not able to figure out how to differentiate the different temporal layers (Jan -June of 2018). <br><br>Additionally I would prefer to download this data directly from errdap using the http protocol as the source type. However nothing happens when I used the https, i.e. using the following as input in the url box of the https protocol: <br><br>https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/nesdisVHNSQchlaMonthly.nc?chlor_a[(2018-01-01T12:00:00Z):1:(2018-06-01T12:00:00Z)][(0.0):1:(0.0)][(20.00625):1:(-20.00625)][(-179.9812):1:(-69.99374)]<br><br>Is there a opendap protocol for bringing data into qGIS? Any help on either of these issues would be greatly appreciated. <br><br>Thank you <br><br>Cara Wilson <br><br><br><br><br></div></body></html>
