Plugin not working for .hdf MODIS data #22
Description
I am trying to read a HDF file using the cis.read_data() function in Python.
import cis
import iris
from cis import read_data
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
a=cis.read_data('MOD06_L2.A2008001.0000.061.2017287164540.hdf','Cloud_Effective_Radius_16')
When I run this an error comes up:
ProductPluginException: An error occurred retrieving data using the product MODIS_L2. Check that this is the correct product plugin for your chosen data. Exception was TypeError: slice indices must be integers or None or have an __index__ method.
The same thing happens when I put in 'MODIS_L2' explicity as the plugin in the cis.read_data() function.
Am I using the wrong plugin? If not, then I can't work out how to read the file.
