Re: [cf-satellite] No Grid Mapping Name for Polyconic Projection

For the record, here is the information about hooking your own
coordinate transformation code into the netCDF library...

Hi Tom:

yes we have hooks for this:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/tutorial/CoordTransBuilder.html

it may be slightly out of date, but not much. If he is going to do so,
let me know.

Also, he needs to work with netcdf-4, not HDF5 in order to get the
shared dimensions.

John
