Frank,

Is there a quick way we can get the georeferencing working properly?  Is it
a projection definition problem or a program artifact?  I may have some time
to take a look.

Denis,

The ncdump output looks like this:

dimensions:
       y = 65 ;
       x = 93 ;
variables:
       float Z_sfc(y, x) ;
               Z_sfc:long_name = "Geopotential height at surface of the earth"
;
               Z_sfc:standard_name = "geopotential_height" ;
               Z_sfc:units = "gp m" ;
               Z_sfc:GRIB_parameter_number = 7 ;
               Z_sfc:GRIB_level_flag = 1 ;
               Z_sfc:_FillValue = -9999.f ;
               Z_sfc:navigation = "nav" ;
       double x(x) ;
               x:units = "km" ;
               x:long_name = "synthesized X coord" ;
               x:_CoordinateAxisType = "GeoX" ;
       double y(y) ;
               y:units = "km" ;
               y:long_name = "synthesized Y coord" ;
               y:_CoordinateAxisType = "GeoY" ;
       char Projection ;
               Projection:Projection_Name = "lambert_conformal_conic" ;
               Projection:latitude_of_projection_origin = 25. ;
               Projection:longitude_of_central_meridian = -95. ;
               Projection:standard_parallel = 25. ;
               Projection:_CoordinateTransformType = "Projection" ;
               Projection:_CoordinateAxisTypes = "GeoX GeoY" ;

// global attributes:
               :History = "GeoGrid extracted from dataset /data/mopt/jakarta-to
mcat-5.0.28/content/thredds/wcs/testdata/eta.nc" ;
               :Convention = "_Coordinates" ;

It seems to me there would be quite a bit of work making
the GDAL netCDF driver handle this properly, though I am
keen on it happening. :-)

Best regards,
