[Paraview] Reading netCDF files Earth models

[Manochehr Bahavar]

Ken,

Thanks for your reply. The problem with that approach is that all the features I am interested in make sense if they are plotted on a sphere (they approximate the Earth surface). So, there is no builtin solution for that?

One more question: How can I access the actual latitude, longitude and depth parameter values using Python. I can see their extent and bounds, but I can not see how I can access the individual values:

temp.GetBounds()
(0.0, 359.0, -89.0, 89.0, -2750.0, 50.0)
temp.GetDimensions()
(360, 179, 57)
temp.GetExtent()
(0, 359, 0, 178, 0, 56)
temp.GetCenter()
(179.5, 0.0, -1350.0)
temp.GetNumberOfPoints()
3673080L

Really appreciate your help

However it appears that I now lose my coordinates and depth values and as a result to extract a subset, I have to use the depth index (not the actual depth value). Is there a way to preserve the latitude, longitude and depth values and work with ParaView using the actual values (not their index) directly?
