Ok, as we cannot solve this issue directly (because we don't yet reproject data) we now display better error messages: https://github.com/CCI-Tools/cate/pull/833

Using the 2D latitude and longitude we should be able to rectify the data on-the-fly so that we end up with data arrays in equirectangular projection that can be further...

@cipogh thanks for investigating. I have not seen this problem so far. Cate does not set a default matplotlib backend and from official [matplotlib docs](https://matplotlib.org/faq/usage_faq.html#what-is-a-backend): > With a typical installation...
Should be fixed in cate 3.0 by https://github.com/dcs4cop/xcube/issues/442

The following issues seem to have a similar root cause, that in the end let `netCDF4._netCDF4.pyx` library raise with `[Errno -68]`, maybe OPeNDAP-related: * #818 * #816 * #783
GeoTIFF can now be read from xarray through it's rasterio backend: https://github.com/pydata/xarray/pull/1260
Yes, unfortunately, we do not (yet) support the OC datasets that use a sinusoidal grid. Please use the ones with the equi-rectangular grid.
