Re: 20050314: IFPSConvention

Hi Jason:

Ok, I was able to finish the projection stuff based on what you told me.

Attached is the new code. Note that you will need to use it with nj22 version 2.2.08 (just released) and IDV 1.2. You'll have to get both packages and merge them together. Probably a source build is the easiest way to do it. It may also work to get the new netcdf-2.2.jar and put it on your class path before nc2.2.jar.

If you are able to change the file format, I would recommend that you do that. If interested, I can send you some suggestions.

regards,
John.
