Help Doing HDF(-EOS) to Multi-layer GeoTIFF Conversion with IDL [message #69875] Tue, 02 March 2010 09:19 Go to previous message

I have been tasked to convert HDF and HDF-EOS files to multi-layer
GeoTIFF images. My source files are SeaWIFS (HDF) and MODIS L1B (HDF-
EOS). HEG might be of some help except that it only runs on 32-bit
Linux and we have 64-bit machines. We do, however, have a copy of IDL
6.2 on our Linux machines. Although I've done quite a bit of file
conversion in the past, I am completely new to geo-located data.

I am aware of IDL's HDF_* and EOS_SW_* routines and IDL's
WRITE_TIFF,...GEOTIFF=struct routine. I just don't know how to
translate, for example, MODIS lat/lon data into the information needed
in the IDL geotiff structure. Surely someone else here has already
solved this problem. Does anyone have example IDL code that performs
the necessary translation? Many thanks!
