I have been banging my head against the wall trying to use the polar stereographic projection, and am hoping one of you that is smarter than me, which would likely be all of you can help! </span><img src="cid:Oi0p" alt=":-)" height="24" width="24" style="font-size: 12pt;" /><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> lol</span></div><div id="x2d2e0dcc51e6462"><div><br /></div><div>this projection:</div><div><a href="http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/docs/on388/tableb.html#GRID202">http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/docs/on388/tableb.html#GRID202</a></div><div><br /></div><div>when applied via gdal_translate and converted to mercator, results in.. how to describe? well here is a screenshot if you are interested</div><div><a href="http://www.blindleper.com/files/gdal/gdal_warp_merc.jpg">http://www.blindleper.com/files/gdal/gdal_warp_merc.jpg</a></div><div><br /></div><div>and here is what the original looks like before the projection is assigned and warped (I know the merc warp is good, because I use it on many other things..
