 Quantities for which 2d cross section and/or 3d volume data are to be output.\\\\
 PALM allows the output of instantaneous data as well as of temporally averaged data which is steered by the strings assigned to this parameter (see below).\\\\
-By default, cross section data are output (depending on the selected cross sections(s), see below)  to local files [[DATA_2D_XY_NETCDF]], [DATA_2D_XZ_NETCDF] and/or DATA_2D_YZ_NETCDF. Volume data are output to file DATA_3D_NETCDF. If the user has switched on the output of temporally averaged data, these are written seperately to local files DATA_2D_XY_AV_NETCDF, DATA_2D_XZ_AV_NETCDF, DATA_2D_YZ_AV_NETCDF, and DATA_3D_AV_NETCDF, respectively.

+The filenames already suggest that all files have NetCDF format. Informations about the file content (kind of quantities, array dimensions and grid coordinates) are part of the self describing NetCDF format and can be extracted from the NetCDF files using the command "ncdump -c <filename>". ''See chapter 4.5.1 about processing the PALM NetCDF data.[../iofiles]''
