Hi NCL,

I have a question that isn't directly related to NCL, but regards to dealing
with a lambert conformal data set.
I hope this is a kosher question to ask to the group?

I have a given lat/lon, and I want to find the coordinates on a given
lambert conformal dataset of the CONUS.

The grid has the following attributes:

xgrid = 1073
ygrid = 689

lat1: 20.192
lon1: 238.446
Dx: 5.079406
Dy: 5.079406

lat corners (20.192, 20.33182, 50.10547, 49.93959)
lon corners (-121.554, -69.2084, -60.88594, -130.1034)

So, the conus is defined by some trig equation, and I'm looking for the
algorithm to determine the coordinates for a given lat/lon.
If someone could help me out here, I'd be very appreciative.

Thank you.

Micah
