Great. The edge row cropping and fixing with r.region can be a little
tricky, as can managing a region aligned to the 1/2 cell offset raster,
not one rounded to the raster resolution, but as long as you're careful
everything should end up aligning ok. Check against a coastline like
Natural Earth's.

I upgraded gdal to 1.10 and used r.in.gdal -l and was able to read the file and 
display it with no problems.

Re: [GRASS-user] GRIB2 r.in.gdal problem

2014-02-13 Thread Hamish
(sorry for top posting, no time to deal with yahoo mail today)

Hi,

note for GRIB you need gdal 1.10 or newer, there were
edge coordinate bugs in earlier versions.


---> see:  http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRIB


note grass uses the cell-center for data value convention,
not the data values at grid line confluences (nodes) convention for raster 
arrays.


and so in grass the region's e,w,s,n values are at the outer edge of the raster 
cells, while gridline-centered arrays* would give coords overhanging the edges 
of the region by half a cell.

sometimes when loading in gridline-centered data you need to crop away the data 
row at 90N,S and one of the two at 0,360 or +-180 longitude. See the MODIS page 
in the wiki perhaps.
the way there is to use 'r.in.gdal -l' to force it to fit into 90N,S, then 
carefully use g.region + r.mapcalc to crop away the two rows, then use r.region 
to fix the map bounds back to where they should.

resolution ends up with bounds at e.g. 25,75m with a cell size of 50m, you have 
to be careful that d.zoom or 'g.region -a' doesn't realign the bounds to 
0,50,100m instead of 25,75 (so silently shifted by 1/2 a cell). 



* (usually can spot them as they have like 501x1001 cells not 500x1000)



http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_raster_semantics#Cell_Locations

http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_FAQ#Errors


but the first thing to verify for the GRIB format is that your gdal version is 
1.10 or newer.

Hamish

[GRASS-user] GRIB2 r.in.gdal problem

2014-02-11 Thread Lee Eddington
I’m trying to import some GRIB2 data into GRASS (6.4.3 on a Mac) and am having 
a problem with the range of the latitude coordinates.  I’m working with the 
following file:


http://www.ftp.ncep.noaa.gov/data/nccf/com/gfs/prod/gfs.2014021112/gfs.t12z.master.grbf72.10m.uv.grib2

I used gdal_translate to create a GeoTiff file, but when I try to import it 
into a lat/lon location I get the following:

GRASS 6.4.3 (GFS_from_grib):~ > r.in.gdal 
input=gfs.t12z.master.grbf72.10m.uv.tif output=gfs
WARNING: Datum  not recognised by GRASS and no parameters found
Projection of input dataset and current location appear to match
WARNING: G_set_window(): Illegal latitude for North

Here is the output from gdalinfo:

lees-mbp:GFS Lee$ gdalinfo gfs.t12z.master.grbf72.10m.uv.tif

GRIB_SHORT_NAME=10-HTGL
GRIB_UNIT=[m/s]
GRIB_VALID_TIME=1392379200 sec UTC

So it’s showing the north and south bounds of 90.25 N and -90.25 S.  I’m almost 
positive that this would be the values of the edges of the cells and that the 
cells are centered at 90 N and 90 S.

Is there a way to import this data?

Thanks,
Lee
