NetCDF to Brick
this is hard to generalize for something like raster (though no doubt the authors will get to it eventually), I would suggest just using ncdf4, RNetCDF, or ncdf packages to open, read and manipulate this more directly in R. It's not difficult and you could report back your pathway to raster objects to inspire others. (I prefer RNetCDF only because I'm more familiar with it, but since raster uses ncdf or preferentially ncdf4 it's probably best to start there).

I'm having an issue with creating a raster brick from a NetCDF. Normally this works fine but for a file I recently downloaded the time and X dimensions are getting swapped so I get a brick with dimensions 72, 7300, 525600, 110 (nrow, ncol, ncell, nlayers), when it should be 72, 110, 7920, 7300 (nrow, ncol, ncell, nlayers). I haven't seen any documentation for setting the x, y and z variables when creating a brick, only when outputting one as a NetCDF. -- View this message in context: http://r-sig-geo.2731867.n2.nabble.com/NetCDF-to-Brick-tp7583910.html Sent from the R-sig-geo mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
