Hi Jonathan,
Currently the safest way would be to loop over time with something like this
v_wind_raster=raster(v_wind_file,zvar='vwnd',time=i)
and write these to another format, and then make a RasterStack.
But that's awful. I'll write memory-safer functions for netCDF
sometime this week (i.e. sa
r-sig-geo'ers:
Next in my barrage of questions -- what would be a memory-safe way of
dealing with netCDF files via raster()? I understand that raster
loads the entire netCDF band/file into memory when using raster():
u_wind_rasters=stack(u_wind_file,zvar='uwnd')
or
v_wind_raster=raster(v_wind_
