[GRASS-user] Copy raster from xy location to latlong

GRASS GRASS user

Hello,

I have imported a remote sensing product from an HDF file into an XY
location. It is stored as a 1/4 degree pixel grid with 720 rows and 1440
columns. I would like to copy this raster to a new GRASS lat-long
(WGS84) location with a 1/4 degree resolution (90N, 90S, 180W, 180E).
Can someone please explain the best way to go about doing this?

Thanks much,

William

As long as the two coordinate systems are the same, I don't think there's any
danger in using tar:

$ cd $GISDBASE/$MAPSET
$ tar cjvf rastername.tar */rastername
$cd $NEW_GISDBASE/$MAPSET
$ tar xjvf rastername.tar
