QGIS plugin to plot 1D, 1D2D and 2D time series map results as animation. The map results should be stored on a netCDF file according the UGRID standard for 1D meshes, 1D2D contact meshes and/or 2D meshes. All types could be in one netCDF file.
To build the plugin qgis_umesh you have to install QGIS (OSGeo4W network installer (64 bit), https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/download.html ), QT 5.12 LTS, BOOST 1.72.0 and netCDF4. The windows solution will place the qgis_umesh.dll on the qgis plugin directory (ex. c:\OSGeo4W64\apps\qgis\plugins\qgis_umesh.dll)
At this moment the development environment is based on Visual Studio 2017.
Environment variables (example)

When QGIS 3.16.00 does close/crash without any message if reading a netCDF file, please use QGIS 3.16.01.
