The EGM2008.nc grid was created via the interp_2p5min.f program from NGA. I created input the coordinates for a global 1x1 arc minute gridline registered grid. I know the resolution of the EGM2008 is only 2.5 arc minutes but for remote files I wish to stick with the regular resolutions of 1m, 2m, etc. This grid will serve as the original for the gmtserver-admin recipe earth_geoid.recipe.
