[netCDFJava #VLP-531716]: extract lon lat from geotiff

Hi Alessio,

By default, NetCDF-Java does not know how to read a GeoTIFF (not as a CDM 
dataset, at least). However, there's a project called geotiff-iosp that 
implements an IOServiceProvider for it [1][2]. geotiff-iosp not only creates a 
CDM dataset from a GeoTIFF file, but it constructs a coordinate system for it 
too. It could be exactly what you need.

However, it looks like the project stopped receiving updates over two years 
ago, so I'm not sure if it still works. But at the very least, you could study 
the source code to see how it works.

Cheers,
Christian
