HDF4 MODIS SDS Dataset lack geolocation

Reported by: warmerdam Owned by: warmerdam

Description

The dataset:

http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/data/hdf4/A2006005182000.L2_LAC_SST.x.hdf

lacks apparent georeferencing though if you review the metadata and the subdataset names it is clear that the latitude and longitude are matching geolocation information.

I have committed geolocation support for this dataset as r12364 in trunk. I have not done anything with the A2004*.hdf image though it could at least be returned with five GCPs (corners and center) fairly easily.

The patch could also be backported into 1.4 branch if desired, though I haven't done that yet. Please note here, or email me if you want that.
