Hei Ken,
Did you try the -o flag ("Override projection check (use current location's
projection)
Assume that the dataset has same projection as the current location")?
https://grass.osgeo.org/grass78/manuals/r.external.html
As the error message suggests?
If you are sure that projections in fact match, a mismatch in CRS description
can be overridden that way, without modifying the input file.
Alternatively, you can use r.import to reproject while converting to GRASS
format or you create a new location...
Cheers
Stefan

Subject: [GRASS-user] Cannot read NetCDF with 'semi_major_axis' or
'inverse_flattening'
Hello list,
I have been given an updated NetCDF file - everything is the same as the old
version except there are two new attributes in the 'mapping' variable:
char mapping ;
mapping:geoid = "eigen-6c4" ;
mapping:grid_mapping_name = "polar_stereographic" ;
mapping:latitude_of_projection_origin = 90. ;
mapping:standard_parallel = 70. ;
mapping:straight_vertical_longitude_from_pole = -45. ;
mapping:semi_major_axis = 6378273. ;
mapping:inverse_flattening = 298.27940504282 ;
mapping:false_easting = 0. ;
mapping:false_northing = 0. ;
mapping:_Storage = "contiguous" ;
Specifically:
mapping:semi_major_axis = 6378273. ;
mapping:inverse_flattening = 298.27940504282 ;
When I try to load this file with:
r.external source=netCDF:file.nc:surface output=surface
I get this error:
WARNING: Datum <unnamed> not recognised by GRASS and no parameters found
ERROR: Projection of dataset does not appear to match current location.
Location PROJ_INFO is:
name: WGS 84 / NSIDC Sea Ice Polar Stereographic North
datum: wgs84
ellps: wgs84

lat_ts: 70
lon_0: -45

y_0: 0

Dataset PROJ_INFO is:

ERROR: datum
In case of no significant differences in the projection definitions, use the -o
flag to ignore them and use current location definition.
Consider generating a new location from the input dataset using the 'location'
parameter.
If I remove thos two attributes (semi_major_axis and inverse_flattening) with:
ncatted -O -h -a semi_major_axis,mapping,d,l,6378273 -a
inverse_flattening,mapping,d,f,298.27940504282 file.nc foo.nc
And then try to read in the data, it works.
Is there some reason that those two attributes make it difficult to load the
data in GRASS? Is there a better work-around than removing them? The documented
projection of the data has not changed, only some of the metadata.
Versions:
gdal 3.0.4
grass 7.8.2
Thank you,
-k.
