[GRASSLIST:527] GOES images

[Daniel Victoria]

Hi all,

I downloaded a bunch of GOES images in tiff format and it comes with a
.nav file that's supossed to contain the coordinates.

gdalinfo on the tiff files gives me:
GRASS 6.0.1 (goes):~/goes > gdalinfo 0603280809G12I01.tiff
Driver: GTiff/GeoTIFF
Size is 1200, 1000
Coordinate System is `'

Center      (  600.0,  500.0)
Band 1 Block=1200x6 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Gray


I'm attaching the readme.nav that explains about the georeferencing.

The question is, how do I import these images into a lat/lon location?
I can get them into the x/y location fine. Is there a program to do
this? I could not understand the readme.nav

Thanks

Daniel
