<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I want to convert the
grads binary data file to netcdf. I can do it very easyly by lat4d for grided
data. But the problem comes with the station data file. Say I have station
data file 1990new.grads, 1990new.map and 1990new.ctl. The data descripor
file is like below,</FONT></DIV>
