Most of the data-products on the Unidata IDD are in binary format and are
usually processed by an analysis and display package (e.g., McIDAS, GEMPAK)
into a form that the analysis and display package can use.

Some of the products, however, are textual (e.g., the "IDS|DDPLUS" feed).

We supply the McIDAS and GEMPAK packages on our website, but which package
you use is entirely up to you. The packages we supply have instructions on
how to interface it with the LDM.

If you wish, I can put you in touch with someone who can advise you on the
various analysis and display packages.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
