kml generation question

I tried to polygon.....you are right...too? slow

I'm not sure how to resample to get a regular grid...using interp or interpp
would not be wise because of the size of the grid...

A quick bodge would be to ignore the slight change in lat long
spacing and create some new lat-long coords that are regularly spaced:

 > lonr=seq(min(lon),max(lon),len=length(lon))
 > latr=seq(min(lat),max(lat),len=length(lat))

 can you tell the difference between:

 > image(lonr,latr,mcsst)

and:

 > image(lon,lat,mcsst)

?

I'm sure the difference in longitude isn't worth worrying about:

 > range(diff(lon))
 [1] 0.01184845 0.01185608

 but the lat difference is possibly significant:

 > range(diff(lat))
 [1] 0.008270264 0.009750366

I'll see if I can dig up my resampling code - basically it created new
coordinates for lat and lon (as above) and then mapped those into
indexes in the array.
