axis values

[John C Cartwright <John.C.Cartwright@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

I'm suffering from a bit of confusion regarding the axis values in the 
configuration file.

In looking at the coads data provided with LAS, the grid x axis is 
defined as:

 <coads_climatology_cdf_COADSX type="x" units="degrees_east">
  <arange start="21" step="2" size="180"/>
 </coads_climatology_cdf_COADSX>


The LAS user interface presents the X range as 180W -> 180E, but the 
ferret property is sent as:

ferret prop: x_lo = 180
ferret prop: x_hi = 540

Can someone clarify for me or am I simply mis-reading this?

Also,  what is the difference between the ferret properties of "x_hi" 
and "refmap_xhi"?

Thanks!
