Hello, I have a NetCDF format climate data and would like to ask if anyone know how to convert this format into excel sheet or how to read it into ArcGIS?

Thanks!

Hello Xander,

Thank you. I read through that and try reading the NetCDF data as a raster layer following ArcGIS's instruction, but it seems does not work. For the input netCDF file, I select my netCDF climate file, then I pick temperature as the variable (the x & y variable are just lon & lat). But when I open the attribute table for the layer I just generate, there is nothing there (and also nothing shows on the map). I wonder whether I do something worng.

Thanks

Is it possible to share some of your data?

[Yi-JyunLin]

Hello Xander, thanks for trying to help. May I send the data to you via email? If so, please let me know your email address.

Hi linyiyi ,

Sorry for the delay. I would prefer that you attach any sample data to this thread. That way multiple users may have a look at it and help solve your problem. If that is not possible for you, you can send me an email with the data to xbakker [at] esri.co (or use for instance WeTransfer if the data is too large to send by email).

[Yi-JyunLin]

Sure. Please find the attached data file.

Again, thank you so much for your help !

Hi linyiyi , I am not seeing any file attached. Could you check this please?

sorry, I just notice the data is too large to send...trying to figure out how to send the data via WeTransfer.
