<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>grdinfo</b>
reads a 2-D binary grid file and reports various statistics
for the (<i>x,y,z</i>) data in the grid file(s). The output
information contains the minimum/maximum values for
<i>x</i>, <i>y</i>, and <i>z</i>, where the min/max of
<i>z</i> occur, the <i>x</i>- and <i>y</i>-increments, and
the number of <i>x</i> and <i>y</i> nodes, and [optionally]
the mean, standard deviation, and/or the median, L1 scale of
<i>z</i>, and number of nodes set to NaN. <i><br>

grid files. (See GRID FILE FORMATS below.)</p>

<h2>GRID FILE FORMATS</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b><A HREF="GMT.html">GMT</A></b> is
able to recognize many of the commonly used grid file
formats, as well as the precision, scale and offset of the
values contained in the grid file. When <b><A HREF="GMT.html">GMT</A></b> needs a
little help with that, you can add the suffix
<b>=</b><i>id</i>[<b>/</b><i>scale</i><b>/</b><i>offset</i>[<b>/</b><i>nan</i>]],
where <i>id</i> is a two-letter identifier of the grid type
and precision, and <i>scale</i> and <i>offset</i> are
optional scale factor and offset to be applied to all grid
values, and <i>nan</i> is the value used to indicate missing
data. See <b><A HREF="grdreformat.html">grdreformat</A></b>(1) and Section 4.17 of the GMT
Technical Reference and Cookbook for more information.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">When reading a
netCDF file that contains multiple grids, <b><A HREF="GMT.html">GMT</A></b> will
read, by default, the first 2-dimensional grid that can find
in that file. To coax <b><A HREF="GMT.html">GMT</A></b> into reading another
multi-dimensional variable in the grid file, append
<b>?</b><i>varname</i> to the file name, where
<i>varname</i> is the name of the variable. Note that you
may need to escape the special meaning of <b>?</b> in your
shell program by putting a backslash in front of it, or by
placing the filename and suffix between quotes or double
quotes. See <b><A HREF="grdreformat.html">grdreformat</A></b>(1) and Section 4.18 of the
GMT Technical Reference and Cookbook for more information,
particularly on how to read splices of 3-, 4-, or
5-dimensional grids.</p>
