We access these products in our metapps using ADDE which already serves these formats up in a AreaAdapter compatible format. To read them direct from disk, you would need to write an adapter to read these formats directly. Since these are proprietary formats (at least the NOWrad), you would need to get code from WSI to read that format. These products are run-length encoded as I remember. A FlatField would be the VisAD Data object to use (x,y) -> (value) with a CoordinateSystem (x,y) <-> (lat,lon). If you do write such a decoder/adapter, we would appreciate you contributing back to the VisAD community.
