All this boundary information is more easily obtained
with the Coyote Library routine FindMapBoundary, of course:

void = FindMapBoundary(geoTiffFile, b, XRANGE=xr, YRANGE=yr)

The boundary is in the variable b. Or you can use the ranges.
Same numbers, just presented differently, depending on what
you need.

Cheers,

David
