Hello! (I am rewording my previous request)

My input is a point data file of quantitative biological data , in a table (excel or ascii)

- cols are: lon, lat, depth, time, var1, var2, ... var50

- the number of rows is arbitrary

My objective is to feed L.A.S. I understand that I have to convert my data into my coards-compliant gridded netcdf file ,

This must be a very common problem; are there any tools or any examples available?

Thank you very much for any help
