Dear Samy,

GDAL: gdal_translate

Hello RegCNET users,

I work on terrestrial carbon cycle module in CLM4.5 coupled to RegCM4 model, and i want to verify gross primary production GPP and net primary production NPP against MODIS-17 satellite dataset, which is in tiff format and I want to convert it to netcdf format. Does any one have a clue how to solve this problem.

Regards
