Welcome to the Climate Data Toolbox for Matlab! Here are some tips on getting started with CDT:
Contents
What is a.CDT file?CDT is a Disk Image Files extension of a Binary format made by Sony. You can launch.CDT files on Linux, Mac, and Windows. How to make a.CDT file? CDT includes a handful of tutorials that address some common issues that we run into when analyzing climate data in Matlab. NetCDF data describes how to load and analyze NetCDF data. Dates and times describes various Matlab date formats, and how to use them with Earth science data. Try to locate CORELDRW.CDT and delete it before trying what Ariel suggested. It is usually at 'C:Users AppDataRoamingCorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6Draw'. A new one will be created by Draw next time you start a new document. Might be that the file is corrupted or for some reason locked by the system.

Downloading CDT
You have a few options for downloading CDT. You can get the most recent release of the toolbox here (about 100 MB) and just double-click on the file to install it (described below) or you can find all the latest individual files through the Add-Ons menu (Method 2 described below), on the Mathworks File Exhange or on GitHub.
Installing CDT in Matlab
You have two options for how to install CDT:
1. If you have already downloaded the .mltbx file, navigate to it in your file system and it might look something like this:
Just double-click on that file and when the menu pops up, click Install. Installation should take less than a second.

2. Alternatively, if you haven't already downloaded the mltbx file, you can get it via the Add-On button from directly within Matlab. That looks like this in the HOME menu:
Click Get Add-Ons, look up Climate Data Toolbox, and follow the prompts to download and install CDT automatically.
Accessing Help
Need help? Just type
to access TMD documentation. For help with specific functions, type cdt followed by the function name. For example,
