Hey all,
Is it possible to copy / append an SDS from within a L2 SeaDAS produced hdf4
to an new SDS with all the same attribute, but a different name, inside the
same hdf file? I also have to do this in batch mode, commandline only. For
instance I want to copy the chlor_a SDS in its entirety to a new SDS chlor_c
as an example. From idl's hdf_info:
hdf_info, "A2011156181500.L2"
% Compiled module: HDF_INFO.
% Loaded DLM: HDF.

chlor_a FLOAT DFNT_FLOAT32 2 [1287, 560] mg m^-3
Attribute => 1 long_name = Chlorophyll Concentration, OC3
Algorithm
Attribute => 2 slope = 1.000000
Attribute => 3 intercept = 0.000000
Attribute => 4 units = mg m^-3
Attribute => 5 bad_value_sca = -32767.00
Attribute => 6 bad_value_uns = -32767.00
to also have this in the same file:

Attribute => 4 units = mg m^-3

Attribute => 6 bad_value_uns = -32767.00
Any advice at all is greatly appreciated. Would be great to do it in idl, but
no clue there either.
