NetCDF segmentation fault

[jdenisgiguere@…]

Hi,

I get some trouble with NetCDF file avalaible on ​http://nomad.geo.usherb.ca/~level2/2002.07.01/.

When I lauch gdalinfo I get a segmentation fault.

I see on old mailing list message that it is not all version of NetCDF file that are readable with gdal. I think that it could be a good idea that in case that the nc file is not supported, there is a nicer message. :-)

Also, there is a open source library (I don't study the license) that allow reading and writing my problematic file. This is the netcdf-bin package of debian. The source seems to come from

​http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/netcdf/index.html

I test gdalinfo 1.2.6 and today cvs snapshot

Jean-Denis, 

Could you indicate what version of GDAL you were using? 

Denis Nadeau is currently working on netcdf support in GDAL, so I will pass
this report on to him.

I have done some same for netcdf to support CF conventions.  Could you
provide me with some data where gdal core dumps?


Thanks
Denis

I have solved the problem.  Please update your gdal/frmts/netcdf directory,
recompile and give a try.  I now read latitude and longitude for
geotransformation.
