[IDV #MQM-696970]: visad error propagation facility

Hi Tyn-

The IDV does not support error propagation at this point. Most
methods pass Data.NO_ERROR for the error type.

If you were doing all your VisAD data manipulation in Jython, you
could add in the ErrorEstimate with setRangeErrors on the temperature
field. Then, for all your computations, you'd need to do something
like what is outlined in Tom's tutorial.

I really don't know much about the ErrorEstimate stuff. It might be
better to ask the VisAD list if you have specific questions.
