+This file contains all output data from the [wiki:doc/tec/mas Multi Agent System (MAS)] in NetCDF format.\\\\
+Each variable other than //time// (1D, contains what the name suggests) has two dimensions (//time// and //agent_number//) so that at each [../agtpar#dt_write_agent_data output time step] all agent variables are output for each agent.\\
 The variables are:
-* agent ID (ag_id)
-* agent position (ag_x, ag_y)
-* wind speed at agent position (ag_wind)
-* temperature at agent position (ag_temp)
-* agent group (ag_group, see [../agtpar#number_of_agent_groups number_of_agent_groups])\\
-**Very important:** Due to agent data structure, agents may not always be sorted in the same succession. E.g. ag_id( time=i, agent_number= j) may not be the same as ag_id( time=i+1, agent_number= j). Thus, if individual agent data is needed, sorting by ag_id in postprocessing is required. \\\\

-This file contains data of the temporally averaged 3d-volume data (see [../d3par#data_output data_output]) in netCDF format. The data in this file can be visualized by any graphic software which provides a netCDF interface (e.g. [../ncl NCL], [http://www.ferret.noaa.gov/Ferret/ ferret] or [http://meteora.ucsd.edu/~pierce/ncview_home_page.html ncview]). \\\\
-See the description of [../netcdf PALM-netCDF-output] for more detailed information.
+* unique agent ID (//ag_id//)
+* agent position (//ag_x//, //ag_y//)
+* wind speed at agent position (//ag_wind//)
+* temperature at agent position (//ag_temp//)
+* agent group (//ag_group//, see [../agtpar#number_of_agent_groups number_of_agent_groups])\\
+**Very important:** Due to agent data structure, agents may not always be sorted in the same succession. E.g. ag_id( time=i, agent_number= j) is not guaranteed to be the same as ag_id( time=i+1, agent_number= j). Thus, if individual agent data is needed, sorting by ag_id in postprocessing is required. \\\\
+The data in this file can be visualized by any graphic software which provides a netCDF interface (e.g. [../ncl NCL] or Pythons [https://matplotlib.org/ matplotlib]). \\\\
+For further information, have a look at the parameters [../agtpar#dim_size_agtnum_manual dim_size_agtnum_manual], [../agtpar#dim_size_factor_agtnum dim_size_factor_agtnum] and [../agtpar#dt_write_agent_data dt_write_agent_data].
