.. Readers Formats ~~~~~~~ PseudoNetCDF helps make files act like netCDF by making readers that convert the binary files data data and metadata, and by providing convenience functions for the metadata. To do that, it has many `format` options. The easiest way to use them is via :func:`pncopen`. .. code-block:: python import PseudoNetCDF as pnc path = '/path/to/file' fmt = 'ioapi' # ioapi is for CMAQ; bpch is for GEOS-Chem; CAMx has options... f = pnc.pncopen(path, format='?') You can find a full list of options using `pncopen(help=True)`. The list below gives common `format` options for specific types of files. .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 :glob: readers/*
