I am still battleing this conversion. I was just informed, via IRC, that gdal won't overwrite existing files, so I may have been making a difference, but not knowing it. In any case, I tossed together a simple script, that thus far, does nothing...

If I remove the a_srs to assign it as being an actual lambert conformal projection, it doesn't even have the georeferenced options, just the first ones. $ gdalinfo nn.tif Driver: GTiff/GeoTIFF Files: nn.tif Size is 11696, 4208 Coordinate System is: PROJCS["unnamed", GEOGCS["NAD27", DATUM["North_American_Datum_1927", SPHEROID["Clarke 1866",6378206.4,294.9786982139006, AUTHORITY["EPSG","7008"]], AUTHORITY["EPSG","6267"]], PRIMEM["Greenwich",0], UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433], AUTHORITY["EPSG","4267"]], PROJECTION["Lambert_Conformal_Conic_2SP"], PARAMETER["standard_parallel_1",49.33], PARAMETER["standard_parallel_2",54.66], PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",54], PARAMETER["central_meridian",-115], PARAMETER["false_easting",0], PARAMETER["false_northing",0], UNIT["metre",1, AUTHORITY["EPSG","9001"]]] Origin = (-115.000000000000000,56.000000000000000) Pixel Size = (0.000854993160055,-0.000475285171103) Metadata: AREA_OR_POINT=Area TIFFTAG_SOFTWARE=Adobe Photoshop CS3 Macintosh TIFFTAG_DATETIME=2009:02:21 16:15:49 TIFFTAG_XRESOLUTION=0 TIFFTAG_YRESOLUTION=0 TIFFTAG_RESOLUTIONUNIT=2 (pixels/inch) Image Structure Metadata: INTERLEAVE=PIXEL Corner Coordinates: Upper Left (-115.0000000, 56.0000000) (115d 0'6.32"W, 54d 0'1.81"N) Lower Left (-115.0000000, 54.0000000) (115d 0'6.32"W, 54d 0'1.75"N) Upper Right (-105.0000000, 56.0000000) (115d 0'5.77"W, 54d 0'1.81"N) Lower Right (-105.0000000, 54.0000000) (115d 0'5.77"W, 54d 0'1.75"N) Center (-110.0000000, 55.0000000) (115d 0'6.04"W, 54d 0'1.78"N) Band 1 Block=11696x1 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Red Band 2 Block=11696x1 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Green Band 3 Block=11696x1 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Blue On Sat, Feb 21, 2009 at 9:55 PM, Brian Murray <idle...@gmail.com> wrote: > I'm trying to get all of it. :) > > It appears like a_allr is ok, but then when I apply the definition, it > only grabs a few meters of the real map... > > I think I must have to set the scale to something.
