[IDV #PTI-752485]: IDV -DORADE & radial netCDF support



Hi Joe-

> I've attached a sample file.

Thanks, that helped.

The problem is that when you select I'm Still Feeling Lucky, you end up
using the VisAD data reader, not the netCDF Sweep file reader.  The default
"I'm Feeling Lucky" was just using the  grid reader.

I've fixed this in our CVS and it will be in the tomorrow's build which
you could download from:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/release/nightly

With that, you'll find an entry for netCDF Radar Sweep Files in the list of
data types.

Alternatively, you could cut and paste the following into a file
called datasource.xml and place it in your ~/.metapps/DefaultIdv
directory.  That will save you from installing a new release:

<?xml version="1.0"   encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<datasources>
  <datasource
     id="NetCDF.SWEEP"
     factory="ucar.unidata.data.radar.NetcdfRadarDataSource"
     patterns="ncswp.*\.nc$"
     fileselection="true"
     doesmultiples="true"
     label="netCDF Radar Sweep files"/>
</datasources>

(Our support system doesn't  send attachements, so I'll send it
to you in a personal e-mail).

You'll need to use the 3D sweep to see the data.

Don.
