Hi,
I would like to read a netcdf4 file using python bridge.
I imported netCDF4 module and then I read the file:

rd=python.import('netCDF4')
data=rd.Dataset('/tmp/A2007235-chl-med-hr.nc')

now with help,data I obtain the information:

<class 'netCDF4._netCDF4.Dataset'>
root group (NETCDF4 data model, file format HDF5):

variables(dimensions): int32 time(time), float32 lat(lat), float32 lon(lon), float32 CHL(time,lat,lon), float32 WTM(time,lat,lon)
groups:

Now I would like select lat or lon variables and import the data array.

I select the "lat" variable with:
latitude=data.variables['lat']

but I don't know how I can get the data.

I tried with data.variables['lat'][:] (as in python ambient) but it doesn't work.

Can you help me?

thanks in advance.

ciao
