Small correction: it is GDAL that supports NLAPS. Grass can utlize by
depending on GDAL for import (r.in.gdal).

Vijay,


You could indeed import to Grass (r.in.gdal) and export to geotiff
(r.out.gdal). But if it is the only thing you need to achieve Grass
could be an overkill. Simply use gdal_translate - a command line
utility, part of GDAL package.
