Hi All,
Does anybody have a routine that takes an hdf format satellite imagery
(such as aster) and puts it into geotiff.
I need some examples how to manipulate this sort of data.
Up until now, I was using freeware/shareware packages to do conversion,
but I am not convinced that they parse the metadata correctly...
Best,
M

Hi,
I actually tried it. It worked fine with the Aster DEM datasets, but I
couldnt get an output for the L2 VNIR hdfs. It consistently gave me the
message "stopping, an error encountered" I tried different Java
versions, different OS'es, different datasets... As far as I see, the
coordinates written in the metadata (SceneFourCorners) are not parsed
correctly...
I finally posted the problem to the forum, but havent heard anything.
