As far as I know is a raster.

You can get it from:

http://www.qlands.com/other_files/2011-01.grib

This grib is only one record from the whole file and it contains maximum temperature for the whole world.

The following is the wgrib ./2011-01.grib -V  of the file

is it raster or vector data?

can you make the file accessible some place?

Hi,

I am trying to open a grib file (meteorological data) with GDAL 1.8.1
but i get the following error:

./2011.grib is a grib file, but no raster dataset was successfully
identified.
gdalinfo failed - unable to open './2011.grib'

Other tools like wgrib successfully opens the same file.

Any idea what is wrong?

Thanks,
Carlos.
