Hi,<br>
i am using python/gdal. I am trying to open a MODIS satellite file <span
class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color:
rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal;
font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal;
line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform:
none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;
font-size: medium;">from the Terra satellite (which is hdf4-eos
format). Doing:<br>
ds = gdal.Open(file)<br>
drivertype=ds.GetDriver().LongName<br>
<br>
returns<br>
ERROR 4:
`C:/tmp/SrcData/2010Data/MODISData/MOD03/MOD03.A2010002.1810.005.2010258062733.hdf'
not recognised as a supported file format.<br>
<br>
Is this file format not supported?<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
