We are using NetCDF 2.2.15, to exact information from a grib file and generate a geotiff, and it works great.  However, our gridded comes in, in various projections (i.e. Stereographic, Lat/Lon, Lambert, Mercator, etc.).  Is there a simple way to convert a particular projection, say Stereographic, to Lambert?  It appears that we will have to take the grib file, extract the parameter of information, and write a new cdf file, and use the new cdf file to generate the geotiff, correct?

 

Thanks,

Greg
