ESRI ArcINFO used two formats that spreded files into a directory with the layer name and another directory called INFO. In the directory with the layer name, the files had the .ADF extension you mentioned in the first email. But their content is different.
Daniel, In the late 1980s I used Arc/INFO on a Prime and pc-arc/info on a pc. Info was the attribute database.
From the list you sent, you have a file named hdr.adf, which is a giveaway that we are dealing with an ESRI GRID (raster format). The presence of a .OVR file also indicates that it's a grid, OVR being the raster pyramid overviews.
Thought so.
So, if you have a Raster product, it means that the person providing the data took care of the processing to generate both the bare earth model and the highest hit. Anyway, you can use r.in.gdal to import those GRIDS into GRASS. Just point to the hdr.adf file and all should be OK.
My problems are that pointing r.in.gdal to the hdr.adf files display only the strange wedge/rectangle I attached to messages earlier in this thread. They should be retangles for a full 1 degree x 1 degree topographic quad map with colors varying by elevation. My need is to learn why I'm not getting clean imports of either bare_earth or highest_hits for any of the three years of data. This is why this thread has continued so long. The only option to r.in.gdal I've used is '-o' to use the source's projection for the map.
