Hi!

(Assuming you have created a LOCATION based on the coordinate system in
which you want to work and in which your data is projected...)

* Using r.in.gdal from the command line or from the GUI under
"File>Impor> Raster map> Multiple formats using GDAL"

* Important is to check the extent and the resolution of your current
working "region". If these settings are not the proper ones the you
don't see anything cause your data are somewhere out of your "screen"
but still inside your LOCATION.

a. With "g.region -p" in the command line or "Config>Region>Display
region settings" you can check the current seetings.

b. Fastest way is to tell r.in.gdal to "extend location extents based
on new dataset" (either with r.in.gdal -e input=... output=... and the
rest or by checking the respective option in the GUI of r.in.gdal)

Hope this helps you a bit...

I forgot to cc to the list before... so once again, and this time more
clear:

* check the projection system information of your tif file with gdalinfo
from the commandline.

(man gdalinfo for help)

* and then... (the message I forgot to cc to the list):

You have to know in which coordinate system your "nf42_geo.tif" data is
projected. If you are sure that your data is projected in the coordinate
system which you assigned in your LOCATION

(with g.region -o you get that info as well)

then just use an extra option to ignore these errors:

-o in the commald line or the respective box in the GUI "Override
projection"

e.g. CLI: > r.in.gdal -e -o in=nf42_geo.tif out=tm

By the way,

it is very helpful and saves time and energy to consult tha help pages
always. There are (almost) always the necessary examples and
explanations.

I am getting the message
