[gdal-dev] he5 is not a supported format?

[Becker, Thomas]

Hi listers,
 
I have a problem reading he5 files with gdal. After installing FWTools 2.0.6 on a Suse 9 machine (compiled the sources) it seems like I do not have support of HDF5 files. The files I have are from the OMI tropospheric NO2 data archive (http://www.temis.nl/airpollution/no2col/omi_data_col3.php?) and when I try to read them with gdalinfo I am getting the following failure:
 
ERROR 4: `gdalinfo failed - unable to open 'OMI-Aura_L2-OMDOMINO_2008m1007t2337-o22510_v883-2008m1008t031738.he5 not recognised as a supported file format.
 
gdalinfo failed - unable to open 'OMI-Aura_L2-OMDOMINO_2008m1007t2337-o22510_v883-2008m1008t031738.he5'.


I am using gdalinfo version GDAL 1.6.0dev, FWTools 2.0.6, released 2008/02/03.

Can someone tell me how to get it to work?


Thx, Thomas
