3.3 Loading Datasets
Press the "Load" button in the main window to popup a Data Type Selection dialog (shown in figure 2). This dialog allow you to
specify the type of the datasets you want to load: Global Model Data, Global Analysis Data, IOP Data, Initial Conditions Data, User
Data, or Quick-Start. (See Section 1.1, "Basic description of the NCAR CCM SCCM Framework" for a discussion of the different
dataset types, and Section 3.4, "Setting Options" for a description of Quick-Start files.) Depending on the type of dataset you selected,
you will be presented with another dialog that will allow you to specify more details about the data to be loaded; each of the different
possibilities is discussed separately below. In all cases, once the datasets have been successfully loaded, the main window will be
updated and the Model Controls and the list of viewable fields will become active.
