Subject: [mget-help] extracting problems on ArcGIS 9.2
Date: Tue, 04 Aug 2009 20:43:05 +0200
Dear,

I have been using MGET for some times, and managed so far. I am currently facing some extaction problems although I have not changed the processing steps, have not changed my software... I cannot figure out what is wrong...
I am working on ArcView 9.2
I am extracting remote sensing data from Seawifs, AquaMOdis and Pathfinder. Any is not working anymore!

I get the following error message:

when running the extraction from a hdf file (Pathfinder map, the map has been previously cut at X=0 and Y=35), and using the conversion tool "To ArcGis Raster" and "HDF SDS to ArcGIS Raster":

I have tried to change the place of the directory, C:/, D:/, F:/...
I tried on old files I know it worked (already did it, and succeed in extracting the data)...

I really don't know why it is not working anymore.

Any help or advise would be really welcome!

thanks a lot!

Best regards,
