cdo sellonlatbox (Abort): Unsupported grid type!
Added by Daniela Faggiani Dias over 8 years ago
Hello everyone,
I am trying to select a region using the command sellonlatbox, for the HadISST data (http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/hadobs/hadisst/data/download.html). However, when I give the command, there is the following error message
cdo sellonlatbox,-90,-25,22,66 HadISST_sst.nc output.nc
cdo sellonlatbox: Unsupported grid type: generic
cdo sellonlatbox (Abort): Unsupported grid type!
Analyzing the grid by "cdo griddes HadISST_sst.nc", I verify that there are two grids in my file:
- gridID 1
#
gridtype = generic
gridsize = 2
xsize = 2 # - gridID 2
#
gridtype = lonlat
gridsize = 64800
xname = lon
xlongname = longitude
xunits = degrees_east
yname = lat
ylongname = latitude
yunits = degrees_north
xsize = 360
ysize = 180
xfirst = -179.5
xinc = 1
yfirst = 89.5
yinc = -1
As you can see, the first one is the generic that the command dont recognize and the grid 2 is the regular lonlat, that the command would recognize and cut the data for my region. I don't know for what is this first grid...I tried to use the command setgrid and nothing changed (I tried to invert the order, putting grid 2 as grid 1 and I also tried to remove the grid 1, but no changes).
Any idea of what I could do to be able to select the region I want with this kind of grid?
Thanks!
