Markus, yes this file has unconventionnal indexing of variables, with the fastest varying dimension being latitude, which confuses the driver
In https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/1377, I've made a number of changes that make support of such dataset a bit easier. I didn't go to making the driver autocorrect the swapped axis, but did a number of fixes so that the geotransform and Geolocation array metadata are correct (and also improve the geoloc transformer/wrapper to deal with such swapped axis) With those fixes, the following does the right thing: $ gdalwarp -geoloc NETCDF:"LPRM- AMSR2_L3_DS_A_SOILM3_V001_20190301000851.nc4":ts /tmp/out.tif -overwrite Without it, you can indeed have the expected result by setting GCP $ gdal_translate \ NETCDF:"LPRM-AMSR2_L3_DS_A_SOILM3_V001_20190301000851.nc4":ts \ tmp.vrt \ -gcp 0 0 -180 90 \ -gcp 1800 0 -180 -90 \ -gcp 0 3600 180 90 \ -gcp 1800 3600 180 -90 $ gdalwarp tmp.vrt out.tif -order 1 --config GDAL_NETCDF_BOTTOMUP 0 -overwrite Even -- Spatialys - Geospatial professional services http://www.spatialys.com _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
