Hi,

no the GDAL raster driver has no support for the UGRIB convention. You could likely use the multidimensional API (https://gdal.org/user/multidim_raster_data_model.html) and tools to access such files at a lower level, but you'd probably be better uses MDAL which has apparently a UGRIB reader: https://www.mdal.xyz/drivers/ugrid.html and should be able to expose meshes.

Hi,

I am currently using GDAL 3.1.3 on a Ubuntu machine. I am trying to work with NetCDF files using the UGRID convention (described here: https://ugrid-conventions.github.io/ugrid-conventions/ <https://ugrid-conventions.github.io/ugrid-conventions/>).

I am having difficulty working with this kind of NetCDF file. Here is the output of  `gdalinfo` against one subdataset of a NetCDF file using the UGRID convention.

`$ gdalinfo -mm -proj4 NETCDF:"PATH_TO_NETCDF/CMC_shop_slfeav200n_surface_sfc_0_2019080706_P040.nc":St_Lawrence_River_face_nodes

Warning 1: No UNIDATA NC_GLOBAL:Conventions attribute

Driver: netCDF/Network Common Data Format

Files: PATH_TO_NETCDF/CMC_shop_slfeav200n_surface_sfc_0_2019080706_P040.nc

Size is 3, 87396

Metadata:

St_Lawrence_River_face_nodes#cf_role=face_node_connectivity

St_Lawrence_River_face_nodes#long_name=Maps every triangular face to its three corner nodes.

St_Lawrence_River_face_nodes#start_index=0

Corner Coordinates:

Upper Left  (    0.0,    0.0)

Lower Left  (    0.0,87396.0)

Upper Right (    3.0,    0.0)

Lower Right (    3.0,87396.0)

Center      (    1.5,43698.0)

Band 1 Block=3x1 Type=Int32, ColorInterp=Undefined

    Computed Min/Max=0.000,53331.000

  NoData Value=-2147483647

  Metadata:

    cf_role=face_node_connectivity

    long_name=Maps every triangular face to its three corner nodes.

NETCDF_VARNAME=St_Lawrence_River_face_nodes

    start_index=0

`

Following this output, I can confirm that the size and the extent (Corner Coordinates) are not right for example.

Is there anyone who has worked with NetCDF files using the UGRID convention? Is GDAL capable of handling or manipulating this kind of NetCDF file?

Thanks a lot in advance for your answer(s)!
