Description

The ESGF is a federated file distribution service for climate data. Remote data access and virtual datasets are possible through OPeNDAP and netCDF-java, available by default in all ESGF nodes. However, these capabilities have never been used. This provides: 1) Analysis Ready Data (ARD) in the form of virtual datasets, that is, no data duplication needed; 2) Remote data access without the need to download files. Open an URL and get direct access to an analytical data cube.
