Re: [ferret_users] Problems with curv_to_rect



Hi Jean,

The problem may lie in your "radius of influence".  You used 0.2 degrees.  I would try something larger to start.  I have gotten this error before and this was the solution.  Also, check to make sure your longitudes are on the same scale (i.e. 0 to 360 rather than -180 to 180).
