Hi Andy,

Can you explain how to get pointSW and pointNE using the gfw file.

The file contents are:

0.017971305190311
0.000000000000000
0.000000000000000
-0.017971305190311
-127.620375523875420
50.406626367301044

The NWS website explains these fields to be:

Line 1: x-dimension of a pixel in map units
Line 2: rotation parameter
Line 3: rotation parameter
Line 4: NEGATIVE of y-dimension of a pixel in map units
Line 5: x-coordinate of center of upper left pixel
Line 6: y-coordinate of center of upper left pixel

It seems like I have point NW from lines 5 and 6 and not pointSW and
pointNE.

I am also trying to overlay latest weather on my map and would very
much appreciate this help.

Thanks
Balaji
