Also known as Network Common Data Form

NetCDF (Network Common Data Form) is a set of software libraries and self-describing, machine-independent data formats that support the creation, access, and sharing of array-oriented scientific data. The project homepage is hosted by the Unidata program at the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR). They are also the chief source of netCDF software, standards development, updates, etc. The format is an open standard. NetCDF Classic and 64-bit Offset Format are an international standard of the Open Geospatial Consortium.

网络通用数据格式(英語:Network Common Data Form,NetCDF)是一种自描述、与机器无关、基于数组的科学数据格式,同时也是支持创建、访问和共享这一数据格式的函式库。该项目主页位于美国大气科学研究大学联盟(UCAR)的Unidata规划网站。它也是netCDF软件、标准开发、更新等的主要来源。NetCDF格式是一种开放标准。NetCDF的经典格式和64位偏移量格式是开放地理空间协会采用的国际标准。 该项目开始于1989年,UCAR目前对其积极支持,在新发行版中改进性能、增加功能并修正缺陷,当前版本系列是netCDF-4,在编译时也可以选择只建造netCDF-3库。
