[gdal-dev] NOAA satellite swath NetCDF file to georeferenced Gtiff?

[Rutger]

Hey,

For as far as i know, the geolocation with GDAL only works for regular
(rectilinear?) grids. Swaths of scanning sensors (like MODIS/VIIRS etc) are
often irregular because of the bow-tie or other effects.

Have a look at Satpy or Pyresample (which Satpy uses) to handle those more
complex cases. It supports a lot of sensors out of the box, but it's also
quite easy to make a custom reader if you have to:
