NetCDF continues under active development at Unidata (see http://www.unidata.ucar.edu).

The next few releases of netCDF will include:

  1. A new C++ API which has better error handling and handles netCDF-4 advanced features, such as groups and compound types.
  2. Remote access to files stored on a DAP server.
  3. Bundled packaging with udunits and other useful tools.
  4. More documentation, more examples, more tests, and more fun!
