[ferret_users] SHOW AXIS Command : HDF Data file

["C. Shaji" <cshaji@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,
I would like to know the X, Y (LON, LAT) axes Information for an HDF data
file.

The SHOW AXIS command does not give the information what I want.
yes? SHOW AXIS CLIM_SST[I=1:8192,J=1:4096]
 name       axis              # pts   start                end

The SHOW DATA/FULL gives a general information, which is shown below.

How can I know the coordinate information (lat,lon position) for each grid
point represented by the data?

Or Ferret will not give this information for an HDF data file?

Can someone clarify me this?

Thanks in advance,

C. Shaji.
