To answer the "Any ideas on why reprojecting this MODIS data is so difficult?" - it's that the sinusoidal projection is actually pretty exotic, it matches the daily aggregation of L2 geophysical variables from individual swaths (multiple per day) into L3 bins (aggregated daily, then into longer

gdalUtils has a get_subdatasets() which is really helpful here, it's just a gdalinfo with grep. Here's what my code looks like for reprojecting, what I found is that even if the hdf has the proj definition, gdal tools don't seem to use it right, so I specify the proj string as the s_srs or a_srs.

Ah, never mind - it's the subdataset discovery that's probably not easy with rgdal. Sorry for the noise. Mike. On Fri, 30 Nov 2018 at 06:38 Michael Sumner wrote: > Fwiw there shouldn't be any need to convert from hdf to tif - could you > please try this? > > x <- readGDAL(

Fwiw there shouldn't be any need to convert from hdf to tif - could you please try this? x <- readGDAL( ".../GLASS02B05.V04.A1990161.2018062.hdf") If that works it at least removes some steps from your process. Cheers, Mike. On Fri, Nov 30, 2018, 05:03 Elizabeth Webb wrote: > I am using
