    <p>I'm not sure the "right" answer, but I got around that (first)
      error by specifying the full path to the geoidgrid file.  This
      required specifying the proj string (instead of the EPSG string)
      in the reprojection "out_srs" field.  <br>
    </p>
    <p>I also specified the equivalent EPSG string in the "a_srs" field
      of the writer to make sure I got the standard metadata.  I'm not
      100% sure this step is necessary.</p>
