Sets the compression library to be used during the copy. lib can be set to "zlib", "lzo" or "ucl". Defaults to "zlib".
-
--shuffle=(0|1) -
Activate or not the shuffling filter (default is active if complevel>0).
-
--fletcher32=(0|1) -
Whether activate or not the fletcher32 filter (not active by default).
-
--unpackshort=(0|1) -
Unpack short integer variables to float variables using scale_factor and add_offset netCDF variable attributes (not active by default).
-
--quantize=(0|1) -
Quantize data to improve compression using least_significant_digit netCDF variable attribute (not active by default). See
