There is no direct ASCII grid reader in the IDV, but it is
on our list of things to do. The big problem is deciding on
a format. The underlying VisAD library has a method for reading
ASCII grids and we are looking at using that as well as a
netCDF-Java IOSP.
There are a couple of options:
- use the VisAD text reader and then try to display the
resulting data structure using the Any Field formula and
selecting a flow display.
- use the GEON-IDV ASCII->netCDF converter described at:

Stu Wier might want to chime in on this since he's the one
who developed it.
Glad to help if asked. This may need a little tweaking but it has been used quite a bit
to make NetCDF files of gridded data from ASCII files.
