In addition to scipy.io, there are some pure python netcdf readers,
including pupynere (might be easier to install a pure python module?). Also,
you have ScientificPython.io.netCDF, in case this is more convenient for
you.
ncdump is
almost certainly not the way to go, it is best suited for human
inspection of the file contents. If you absolutely want to use it,
consider
using the C source creator in ncdump to import it (Cython or similar?).
Good luck,
Paul.
