[gdal-dev] vsicurl access to a netcdf file does not see the coordinates

[Joaquim Manuel Freire Luís]

Thanks Andrew,

So, I can now force the reading with the HDF5 driver on local file and it also doesn't read the coordinates.
Is this a bug in HDF5 driver?

gdalinfo --config GDAL_SKIP netCDF idades_v2012.grd
