Erick,

I have added support for GetScale(), GetOffset() and GetUnitsType()
in the HDF4 driver for data with the following metadata items:

   productUnits=dimensionless
   scalingSlope=2e-06
   scalingIntercept=0.05

The gdalinfo utility now reports the following for the file in
question:

Band 1 Block=2000x1 Type=Int16, ColorInterp=Gray
  Unit Type: dimensionless
  Offset: 0.05,   Scale:2e-06

All the changes are committed in CVS.

Best regards,
--
