netcdf_preserve_missing_values

netcdf_preserve_missing_values(status)

Sets whether Metview correctly handles missing values by not including them in computations.

Parameters

status (number) – enables/disables missing value inclusion (0 or 1)

Return type

None

Set status to 1 to ensure the correct treatment of missing values, or set it to 0 to revert to Metview 4’s behaviour of considering them to be normal numbers. This is a global option, not specific to a particular NetCDF file.
