ncdfDataset-class

This class represents a single NetCDF resource.

Network Common Data Form (NetCDF) files are widely used for
scientific data. Library-level access in R is provided through packages
'RNetCDF' and 'ncdf4'. Package 'ncdfCF' is built on top of 'RNetCDF' and
makes the data and its attributes available as a set of S4 classes that are
informed by the Climate and Forecasting Metadata Conventions. Access to the
data uses standard R subsetting operators and common function forms.
