 volume data, and masked data (see Sect. [wiki:/doc/tec/user user interface] ). All data output files are in netCDF format, which can be processed by different public domain and commercial software. NetCDF data can also be easily read from Fortran programs, provided that a netCDF library is available. The netCDF libraries currently support three different binary formats for netCDF files: classic, 64-bit offset, and netCDF-4. The latter was introduced in netCDF version 4.0 and is based on the HDF5 ([http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5]) data format. PALM is able to handle all three netCDF formats and also supports parallel I/O for netCDF-4.
 
-For visualization of the netCDF data generated by PALM, several NCAR Command Language (NCL, [http://www.ncl.ucar.edu]) scripts are available that allow a quick overview of the simulation data. For advanced visualizations, we have developed a tool that converts PALM data into the '''''vdf''''' data format of the Open Source software VAPOR ([http://www.vapor.ucar.edu]) ([#clyne2007 Clyne et al., 2007]). Animations using PALM data and VAPOR have been recently published by [#maronga2013c Maronga et al. (2013)], [#knoop2014 Knoop et al. (2014)], and [#kanani2014c Kanani et al. (2014a], [#kanani2014d b].
