I have climate data from GLDAS and I want to convert it to geotiff format. I have about 200 files so manual isn't feasible. Any scripts in arcgis 10 or softwares would be useful.
Hi Vaijayanti,
If you are familiar with R, you could use the raster package. It will allow you to write a script for read a netCDF and then save it as geotiff. You can then use a loop and proceed to batch conversion.
In ArcGIS I would check the model builder but I'm not familiar with.
The same goes for languages like Python, NCL, or IDL (or even the free GDL) - this will be a simple task when scripted!
I have tried some scripting and im stuck. does anyone have a script for it?
It will be a matter of a few lines - what language are you working in?
i created a model in arcgis model builder but it isn't batch converting. i use arcgis 10.1 . Please can someone go through it and correct my mistake? I am also attaching an image for the same
you go to MERRA or Geovanni website, the same data you can get in HDF or Geotiff format. No need to worry about all these things.
hey Sheshakumar Goroshi,
The problem is HDF files on the site you mentioned have data for the whole world,how can one read data for specified co-ordinates?
