[Gdal-dev] Generating a geotiff from netcdf with gdal_translate

[Matt Foster]

Dan,

I have a *little* experience using gdal_translate on netCDF.  I would 
highly recommend upgrading your gdal.  I had problems with seg faults on 
version 1.3.0, and had to pull the source from CVS to alleviate the 
problem.  Perhaps the 1.3.1 release would do OK for you.
