[gradsusr] opening modis hdf files

Thank you all for your help. H Ooi, your help really helped me; by including
'options yrev' - I could open with correct projection. I have separate file
for each time step so I will have to make a loop to open all the files. For
anyone who is trying to open modis hdf, I am re-writing the complete script
for everyone's reference.

 

dset ^./MYD08_D3.A2003121.005.2007081003101.hdf

options yrev

xdef XDim:mod08 360 linear -180.0 1.0

ydef YDim:mod08 180 linear -90.0 1.0

vars 3

Deep_Blue_Aerosol_Optical_Depth_550_Land_Mean=>od_550 0 y,x Optical depth at
0.55 microns for land (corrected): Mean

Deep_Blue_Aerosol_Optical_Depth_550_Land_Standard_Deviation=>od_550_sd 0 y,x
Optical depth at 0.55 microns for land (corrected): Standard Deviation

Deep_Blue_Aerosol_Optical_Depth_550_Land_Minimum=>od_550_min 0 y,x Optical
depth at 0.55 microns for land (corrected): Minimum

endvars

Hi Sergey,

 

      Thank you for your help shown to Sagar.  I think the .ctl file should
look like as attached (yrev is needed in options).  However, I have one
question.  The data refers to only one time step.  How should I modify the
file name (....A2003121.005.2007....hdf => the processing time differs from
file to file) and tdef correspondingly if there are several time steps (say,
121, 122, 123 etc as in day of year perpetual calendar) ?

 

      Best regards.

 

Ooi
