Where is ESRI taking multidimensional data support in the next couple of versions, specifically:

1. NetCDF is not supported in ArcGIS Pro. Is there a projected release version or date when it will be?

2. Dimension Explorer only supports multidimensional data stored in mosaic datasets and time-enabled feature classes. The Multidimension Tools only support NetCDF. What is the big picture for multi-dimensional data support in both ArcGIS for Desktop and ArcGIS for Server?

3. The ability to generate vector fields (wind barbs) with NetCDF as the source, and publish a WMS showing those wind barbs was very exciting. It demonstrated the end to end capability so often needed by clients these days. The only issue I see now is that the source file is locked by ArcGIS Server. This would mean the service needs to be stopped every time the data is updated. For forecast data that can be several times a day. Does anyone have any strategies to get around that?

4. Are there any Geoprocessing tools in development to handle irregular gridded NetCDF files and GRIB?

Thanks
