Hi Berk,
Thanks for your reply. The original Netcdf file is a regular spaced 3D dataset 
with a lot of filled values.  I plan to reorganize the data with AMR or some 
other more efficient structures for rendering. I am developing Python functions 
to resample Netcdf files but I am not sure if this is the right direction.

Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
