[gdal-dev] reading NOAA coastwatch hdf using GDAL

[yehya imam]

Dear GDALers,

I'm trying to read CoastWatch HDF files in GRASS GIS. These files can be downloaded from NOAA CLASS at http://www.class.ncdc.noaa.gov/saa/products/welcome.
I could not read the files directly into GRASS and have thought to extract just the SST channel (dataset) from the hdf into a gtif that is readable by GRASS.

Have someone on this list used the GDAL utilities to manipulate CW-hdf files (warp and export one band into tif with full projection info)? The affine transformation coeffs, included in the metadata, seems to be unreachable by GDAL utils.

Regards,
Yehya
