    <div>Dear Jerl, Simon,<br>
      Apologize for mixing into this thread but I am currently
      investigating how to process EUMETCAST data to more usuable
      formats like NetCDF and GeoTIFF.  The data stream contains MSG
      HRIT data and GOES15/17 + MTSAT2 LRIT data. I'll also need to
      reproject like you do so this post already proves useful!<br>
      <br>
      I can read the MSG data trough gdal/meteosatlib but I can't read
      the GOES and MTSAT2 LRIT data yet. Do you perhaps have some useful
      pointers to software to use? Online documentation is rather
      scarce...<br>
      <br>
      Thanks Reinoud<div><div class="h5"><br>

                            <div>I have a few data sets that come from
                              the GOES satellites (Full Disk) and a
                              couple others.  I can use one of the
                              SSEC's programs to convert from their
                              format to a netCDF.  No useful SRS info
                              comes along in the conversion.</div>
                            <div><br>
                            </div>
                            <div>I've applied an SRS to them using
                              gdal_translate and PROJ.4 that looks like:<br>
                              <br>
                              "+proj=ortho +lon_0=-79.8 +lat_0=.208"
                               (lon/lat is the position of one of the

                            <div><br>

                            <div><br>
                            </div>
                            <div>I'm wanting to get them into EPSG:4326.
                               When I do this, I end up with corner

                              below the satellites position.  </div>
                            <div><br>
                            </div>
                            <div>Does anyone have an suggestions that
                              might help me warp this into
                              position?  I'm sure there's something
                              obvious that I'm missing.</div>
                            <div>I found this page, and the
