EFDC+ allows the export of NetCDF-CF (NetCDF- Climate and Forecast) formatted data. This allows EFDC+ output to be read and displayed on web servers.

• Establish an interface standard that simplifies the design of new software for accessing geoscience data.

The new version of EFDC+ is able to export the native output in NetCDF-CF format for Windows and Linux. EE_Explorer, the pre- and post-processor for EFDC+ can also convert EFDC  *.OUT files to netCDF .nc files, including the derived WQ parameters.  EFDC+ currently exports 44 parameters to NetCDF format..

EFDC+ exports the NetCDF files at the same interval that it produces the model linkages files, which is set in the tab for Timing and Linkage | Linkage | NetCDF

Info
titleNote
  • After running the model, the user needs to close the EFDC+ run window using the carriage return before viewing the netCDF output. Using the X button on the run window will mean NetCDf ouput will not be written. 
  • The calendar date is the default date in the NetCDF output.
  • Layer ordering in the water column and sediment bed will be reversed in NetCDF compared to that of EE. 
  • Units in NetCDF are often different to those in EE, for example bed toxics in NetCDF are in mg/m2 rather than mg/kg as they are in EE.
