The netCDF library also\ndefines a machine-independent format for representing scientific data.\nTogether, the interface, library, and format support the creation,\naccess, and sharing of scientific data.  The current netCDF software\nprovides C interfaces for applications and data.  Separate software\ndistributions available from Unidata provide Java, Fortran, Python,\nand C++ interfaces.  They have been tested on various common\nplatforms.\n\n#### Properties\nNetCDF files are self-describing, network-transparent, directly\naccessible, and extendible.  `Self-describing` means that a netCDF file\nincludes information about the data it contains.  `Network-transparent`\nmeans that a netCDF file is represented in a form that can be accessed\nby computers with different ways of storing integers, characters, and\nfloating-point numbers.  `Direct-access` means that a small subset of a\nlarge dataset may be accessed efficiently, without first reading through\nall the preceding data.  `Extendible` means that data can be appended to\na netCDF dataset without copying it or redefining its structure.\n\n#### Use\nNetCDF is useful for supporting access to diverse kinds of scientific\ndata in heterogeneous networking environments and for writing\napplication software that does not depend on application-specific\nformats.  For information about a variety of analysis and display\npackages that have been developed to analyze and display data in\nnetCDF form, see\n\n* [Software for Manipulating or Displaying NetCDF Data](https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/software.html)\n\n##### More information\nFor more information about netCDF, see\n\n* [Unidata Network Common Data Form (NetCDF)](https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/)\n\n### Latest releases\nYou can obtain a copy of the latest released version of netCDF\nsoftware for various languages:\n\n* [C library and utilities](http://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c)\n* [Fortran](http://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-fortran)\n* [Java](https://downloads.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf-java/)\n* [Python](http://github.com/Unidata/netcdf4-python)\n* [C++](http://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-cxx4)\n\n### Copyright\nCopyright and licensing information can be found [here](https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/copyright.html), as well as in the COPYRIGHT file accompanying the software\n\n### Installation\nTo install the netCDF-C software, please see the file INSTALL in the\nnetCDF-C distribution, or the (usually more up-to-date) document:\n\n* [Building NetCDF with CMake](https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf-c/current/netCDF-CMake.html)\n* [Building NetCDF with Autoconf/Automake/Libtool](https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf-c/current/netCDF-autotools.html)\n* [Building or Getting Binaries for NetCDF on Windows](https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf-c/current/winbin.html)\n\n### Documentation\nA language-independent User's Guide for netCDF, and some other\nlanguage-specific user-level documents are available from:\n\n* [Language-independent User's Guide](https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/nug/current/index.html#user_guide)\n* [NetCDF-C Tutorial](https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf-c/current/tutorial_8dox.html)\n* [Fortran-90 User's Guide](https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf-fortran/current/f90_The-NetCDF-Fortran-90-Interface-Guide.html)\n* [Fortran-77 User's Guide](https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf-fortran/current/nc_f77_interface_guide.html)\n* [netCDF-Java/Common Data Model library](https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf-java/current/userguide/)\n* [netCDF4-python](http://unidata.github.io/netcdf4-python/)\n\nA mailing list, netcdfgroup@unidata.ucar.edu, exists for discussion of\nthe netCDF interface and announcements about netCDF bugs, fixes, and\nenhancements.
