[THREDDS #VNI-792787]: WMS error

Fan,

It looks like two issues are getting confused here.  The first has to do with 
GRIB tables.  I'm working with Hualan to try to resolve that.  The second has 
to do with reading hdf files.  Deeper examination of the files previously 
provided reveals that they have no recognizable grid coordinates.  Without 
recognizable grid coordinates, NetCDF-Java will not find a grid, at which point 
many operations will fail.  Deeper examination of some of the files shows a 
global attribute with information such as the following:

GridHeader = 
"BinMethod=ARITHMETIC_MEAN;\nRegistration=CENTER;\nLatitudeResolution=0.5;\nLongitudeResolution=0.5;\nNorthBoundingCoordinate=40;\nSouthBoundingCoordinate=-40;\nEastBoundingCoordinate=180;\nWestBoundingCoordinate=-180;\nOrigin=SOUTHWEST;\n"

GridHeader = 
"BinMethod=ARITHMETIC_MEAN;\nRegistration=CENTER;\nLatitudeResolution=0.25;\nLongitudeResolution=0.25;\nNorthBoundingCoordinate=50;\nSouthBoundingCoordinate=-50;\nEastBoundingCoordinate=180;\nWestBoundingCoordinate=-180;\nOrigin=SOUTHWEST;\n"

This is not a standard method of communicating grid data that we have come 
across before.  Can you point me to a reference for a broad category of data 
generated in this fashion, or is this something that has been worked out 
locally?  If it's local, your best bet is to write a script that parses out the 
grid information and passes it to NcML, which can add the grid information to 
the files.  The grid-corrected files will then be readable through the 
NetCDF-Java library, and thus usable by the TDS.
