Maintaining band names in multiband raster objects
Hi Wade, If that's convenient for you, try to store your data in the native format of the raster package (.grd). It has the advantage of preserving layer names. Best regards, Lo?c

Hi all, I am trying to keep band names from imported netcdf files intact when I export them using the writeRaster() function from the Raster package, but they are removed and replaced with "Band1, band2, band3, etc." The .nc files I am importing are located at http://gdo-dcp.ucllnl.org/downscaled_cmip_projections/dcpInterface.html#Welcome When I import the .nc files, names(raster object) yields band names such as x2006.01.15 (January 15 2006). These names are interpretable and I would like to preserve them. Is there a way to specify band names for exported raster objects in R? I have seen posts suggesting it is not possible, but if they can be read, then they should be able to be written. Wade A. Wall US Army ERDC-CERL P.O.
