Jason,

Oops, I forgot to add a couple of things to my previous email.

Several times you noted that you wanted to create a remapped image that
covered US states in the mid-west.  You noted that you were going to
use IMGREMAP with the following keywords:

LAT=55 100 PLA=CENTER PRO=LAMB

There is no PLA= keyword for IMGREMAP, and, I just found, if you
specify it you will get an error that looks like:

IMGREMAP: Invalid projection specified = LAMB

I believe that this is a bug, and I will report it back to SSEC.

The other thing is that the specification of:

LAT=55 100 PRO=LAMB

will result in a remapped area that is in southern Canada.  Since you noted
that you were interested in US states:

"The core area of the US that I want is the Midwest (MN, IA, MO, WI, IL,
IN, MI, OH, KY)."

you will need to move your center LAT (55) further south.

Tom
