## PURPOSE: Pull information about the grid used from the
## Models3-formatted file. This includes information such as the
## origin of the grid (lower left corner coordinates in grid units).
##
## INPUT:
## file: File name of Models3-formatted file whose projection we
## want to use.
##
## RETURNS: List containing information about the grid, including the
## origin point of the grid (lower left coordinates in grid units),
## projection, grid cell spacing, etc.
##
##
## NOTES:
## Information about grid cell size, extent of grid, etc. is stored
## in global attributes of the Models3-formatted file.
##

## REVISION HISTORY:
## Original release: Jenise Swall, 2011-06-02
