I have an HDF4 file whose StructMetadata.0 contains the following attributes:
UpperLeftPointMtrs = (-20015109.354000,1111950.519667)
LowerRightMtrs = (-18903158.834333,0.000000)
These are X and Y distances in meters of the MODIS Tile for L3 Gridded product (Sinusoidal Projection). I want to extract/create the coordinates of all the pixels (240 x 240) in this tile given the pixel resolution is 5km. How can I achieve this in Python?
HDF-EOS provides this script. Showing how to access and visualize an LP DAAC MCD19A2 v6 HDF-EOS2 Sinusoidal Grid file in Python.
