Dear list,

I'm trying to bring an ASCII raster file into ArcGIS that resulted from 
calling the R function Tsp(), which is in the "fields" library, followed 
by the use of the function predict.surface() to generate the matrix of 
predicted values. These functions use many of the same inputs as the 
Krig() function in R. My problem is that the output is a symmetrical 
matrix of dimension NxN, however, because R outputs an NxN matrix it 
necessarily results in having a rectangular grid cell (e.g., x dimension 
is 50 and y dimension is 30) for any input data set whose spatial extent 
is not square. 

My question is; does anybody know how to import a rectangular grid from an 
ASCII raster file into ArcGIS using something other than the AsciiToGrid 
function in ArcGIS, which only allows for square grids?

Thanks in advance for any help,
Matt
