<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><SPAN class=990032509-03022006>Question 1,
regarding GDAL: The documentation says that the NetCDF driver supports both
creation and georeferencing, but doing the driver tests mentioned in the GDAL
tutorial suggests that neither Create nor CreateCopy is supported. What is
correct? (I haven't succeeded, both functions return a
NULL).</SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><SPAN class=990032509-03022006>Question 2,
regarding OpenEV: From a C++ program, I export a data set in NetCDF format
(using NetCDF directly, not GDAL), and try to view it in OpenEV. The problem is
that NetCDF requires that the coordinate vectors are exactly as long as the
raster dimensions, and thus that the coordinates themselves are grid cell
centers. When receiving these coordinates, OpenEV seems to interpret both the
minima and the maxima as cell corners. Hence it shrinks all the cells by
(n-1)/n in order to reach the other side of the ranges. Is there any other
netCDF variable or attribute I can use to tell OpenEV about the true, outer
boundaries of the raster?</SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>

data?</SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>
