hello

I read North America reanalysis data (NARR) . It has Lambert Conformal Conic projection.

How can i convert the data to lat lon projection

;===========================

As to the NARR mapping, it is Lambert Conformal Conic. There
are specifications in the attributes internal to each
NetCDF file:

Lambert_Conformal:false_easting = 5632642.22547 ;
Lambert_Conformal:false_northing = 4612545.65137 ;
Lambert_Conformal:grid_mapping_name = "lambert_conformal_conic" ;
Lambert_Conformal:latitude_of_projection_origin = 50. ;
Lambert_Conformal:longitude_of_central_meridian = -107. ;
Lambert_Conformal:standard_parallel = 50., 50. ;
Lambert_Conformal:_Endianness = "little" ;
// global attributes:
:centerlat = 50. ;
:centerlon = -107. ;
:latcorners = 1.000001f, 0.897945f, 46.3544f, 46.63433f ;
:loncorners = -145.5f, -68.32005f, -2.569891f, 148.6418f ;
:standardpar1 = 50. ;
:standardpar2 = 50.000001 ;


;===================================

Best regards

Hi Sium,

The lat/lon values of the projection are available online:
