Hello,

I'm writing to ask what a grid_file should look like for converting a MODIS
HDF file to gridded NETCDF. I'm following the instructions here:
https://dtcenter.org/book/export/html/952
but I'm not able to explore the listed data_file from the tutorial to see
what format I should be copying. I am trying to run this command below,
where the data_file is a 0.05-deg MODIS file containing lat/lon information
and the input_file is a stitched 500m file I created using HDF-Eos tools
and I'm trying to regrid this to 0.05-deg. However I get an error that the
data_file I'm specifying below is not a valid data file. Can you please
help?

Thanks for your time!
