Re: [gdal-dev] Re: gdal_rasterize with a NetCDF file?

Hey Scott,

You could extract that layer from the netCDF, burn it with gdal_rasterize as
a geotiff, convert the geoTiff into a GMT grid, and then possibly add that
back into the netCDF (somehow).

Sounds like a pain though.

  Thanks, that seems to be getting me in the right direction: I'm no

  Doing a search online, I'm getting the impression that this might mean

2009-09-21 Thread Even Rouault
Selon Scott Lewis scott.le...@nsidc.org:

You've got the main point, but the meaning of '+' is a bit more subtle. The '+'
indicates in fact support for the Create() method. Some drivers support updating
existing datasets (like DTED for example), or CreateCopy() (translating entire
existing dataset to the new format) but not the Create() method itself.

I realize that many drivers are missing code to error out with proper message if
they are requested to open the dataset in update mode, but they don't support
it. It's done properly in some (GIF, JPEG, PNG, ...), but not in netCDF, 
I'll try to improve that.

 Ah, thanks.  I must have missed that.  Looks like I'll have to find
 another way to accomplish what I'm trying to do then!

 Thanks for your help!
