Before running make, please ensure that you edited the Makefile to include the correct location of the HDF library on your system. The default location of the HDF library in the example Makefile provided by PO.DAAC is “/usr/local/hdf”. If your HDF library is located elsewhere, the Makefile will not work properly unless edited to include the correct location. The HDF library must also be properly installed on your system before you can compile PO.DAAC read software in C or FORTRAN. The HDF library is currently available from The HDF Group (hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu).
