[GRASS-user] Problem with r.in.arc needs your help to resolve

[Rich Shepard]

   I refined the area for which I need the DEM and used g.remove on the two
huge data files in my previous thread. Now r.in.arc finds missing lines in
the hdr.adf source file.

   All data comes from http://ned.usgs.gov/ and the seemless National
Elevation Dataset. I specified a region in DMS: N 49:15, S 48:30, W -119.15,
E -118:00 and downloaded the extracted file. Same process as with the two
former files except those were outlined on the displayed map rather than
specified by lat/long.

   When I use the GUI to import the raster map using r.in.arc I get these
errors:

r.in.arc --o --verb input=/home/rshepard/GIS/data/Washington/elevation/NED_32789676/ned_32789676/hdr.adf
out=elev titl=DEM

Illegal line in header
GRID1.2
"yllcorner" field missing from header
"xllcorner" field missing from header
"nrows" field missing from header
"ncols" field missing from header
"cellsize" field missing from header
"nodata_value" field missing from header
ERROR: Can't get cell header

   There's a text data file that contains the missing information
(output_parameters.txt):

   I assume that the problem is on my end because in the past I've imported
data from the seamless map into GRASS. I'm out of ideas what to do since I
repeated the extraction with the same lack of success.
