2011-08-24 Thread Etienne Tourigny
Hi all, I would like to start a discussion with those interested about fixing various issues in the NetCDF driver. As it stands, it is not fully CF-1.0 compliant, and produces geographical grids that are not valid for other software. Also, the infamous "up-side down" problem has been addressed f

Hi list I am trying out the postgis raster driver. I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 with gdal 1.8 from the ubuntugis repository. As for postgis I've compiled a snapshot of postgis 2.0 from svn, as offered on the postgis website. Following the directions in the driver info page[1], I've been trying to ge

Ben, I appreciate this attempt to elucidate the current status of vertical and geocentric coordinate support for OGR/proj.4. Indeed it was work that Frank had been doing the past year or so before being snatched up by the Google. As you've found out, it's not quite complete or thoroughly docume

Selon Chaitanya kumar CH : I'd note that implementing Create() is not always possible, depending on the caracteristics of the format iself and/or the library that enables the access to it. For netCDF, I can't say, being not versed into the format. There's perhaps hope that it is doable since I see

Jonathan, I think you will have to modify the gdal_retile.py script[1] yourselves. Can you explain what you mean by the shapefile of the results? [1]: http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/swig/python/scripts/gdal_retile.py On Wed, Aug 24, 2011 at 2:17 AM, Jonathan Greenberg wrote: > GD

Hendy, Currently, there are no plans to implement the Create method for the netCDF driver. You can formally request for it by creating a ticket in the gdal trac page [1]. To implement the method yourselves, you have to look at the current driver page[2] and the driver implementation tutorial page

I probably should change the question to this to make it clearer. Does anyone know whether there is plan to implement Create method for netCDF driver as currently it is only support only CreateCopy method? If no, could someone please describe what steps would be involved to add this method to the
