I doubt cdo can convert to geotiff (in fact I am sure of ir, as I was having a discussion with the devs about it some months ago). Perhaps you are confusing with other software (or a really old versions used to do that). However, it can convert to netcdf which is well supported in gdal/qgis. The proper (current) page for cdo is https://code.zmaw.de/projects/cdo/ cheers Etienne > ciao > > On 24 August 2012 02:05, Margherita Di Leo <direg...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Even, >> >> On Thu, Aug 23, 2012 at 8:36 PM, Even Rouault <even.roua...@mines-paris.org> >> wrote: >>> >>> >>> > So it looks like the information is actually there, but the gdal driver >>> > can't handle it.
