a = addfile("./geo_em.d01.nc","r") ; Open a file


;type = "x11"

  type = "pdf"

; type = "ps"

; type = "ncgm"

wks = gsn_open_wks(type,"plt_geo_2") ; Create a plot workstation

ter = a->HGT_M(0,:,:) ; Read the variable to memory

res = True ; Create some plot resources

res at cnFillOn = True ; Create a color fill plot

res at gsnSpreadColors = True

plot = gsn_contour(wks,ter,res) ; Create plot

end
