     2= Support for decoding netCDF in rasdaman =
     3
     4netCDF format support (decode/encode) is not complete enough in rasdaman. In particular decode and encode are not mapped 1:1 - the netcdf output only exports a single array variables, while ignoring dimension variables and any additional metadata.
     5
     6The metadata and dimension variables can be preserved on netCDF export in conjunction with WCSTImport and petascope.

     8The netCDF file below is used as an example.
