Description
The limitations of the of Netcdf4 support / feature coverage.
CF. NUG
I.E. mostly excluding the extended "User defined" NC4 data types:
- "Enum"
- "Opaque"
- "Compound" -- structure-like
- "VariableLength" -- notably, including variable-length-strings
Note on string/character data handling
- strings presented as arrays of "S1"
- no unicode support for character data
- though there is for names of components (variables, groups, dimensions, attributes)
- ... ?? and in string attributes ??
Also a note on groups:
- ncdata supports them
- iris/xarray (mostly) don't
