Hello Paul, sorry for abstruse mail. I am using R version 2.13.2 on windows (64 bit). I am trying to open ASTER data files(*.hdf). Though, I tried few things like readGDAL() and raster() but got error message "53127_20120124074826_13837.hdf' not recognised as a supported file format" . I tried to load hdf5 package but while installing it I got Warning message: In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) : package 'hdf5' is not available (for R version 2.13.2). I saw the discussion on hdf file on the list with topic "*What is the latest re: reading HDF files with R*". In the discussion Roger pointed out that building gdal against hdf format might help but I do not have a clue how to do that. let me know if you want more info from my end.
