Description (last modified by )
Recent events have us looking the the direct access Netcdf driver (frmts/netcdf). We discovered that the spatial_ref and GeoTransform global tags are ignored for non-complient CF-1.0 files.

Ok. As it turns out, the patch works fine.
I happen to have a THREDDS OPeDNAP server to help me reproduce the graphics for both drivers.
The one major difference is that the Netcdf driver does not allow selection of bands like the OPeNDAP driver. Typically, we have all the time dimensions stacked together so we can do something like: T2?[3][y][x] where 3 points to the timeslice we want out of the dataset. If there are multiple times, the NETCDF driver likes to create multiple bands and then the behavior gets a little wierd... the WKT gets stomped somehow.
Creating output file that is 319P x 224L. GDAL: GDALDriver::Create(GTiff,test.tif,319,224,17,Int16,(nil)) ERROR 1: Only OGC WKT Projections supported for writing to GeoTIFF.

Overall, this patch will allow georeferencing to work if the global attributes are defined. I think someone else noticed that this stopped working as a couple versions ago.

Denis,
Can you review this and consider applying the patch? I'm a bit lost.

Denis,

The patch allows spatial_ref and GeoTransform work via NC_GLOBAL metadata tags. As of 1.4.1, even with the metadata tags, it would not georeference properly.

Unfortunately, this only seems 1/2 the battle. I was hoping the dataset would then be accessible via Mapserver as we are able to do via OPeNDAP
I will reassign to myself until I can figure out the 2nd half.
I copied a bit of code to convert the spatial_ref if it was a PROJ.4 string to WKT. gdalwarp didn't like the PROJ.4 string we use.
Version 2 vs. 1.4.1: http://ak.aoos.org/data/patch/frmts_netcdf_global_georef.patch
To crack the 2nd half of the nut, I need to get a working example from the OPeNDAP side. Right now, I get a blank image.
