Cher Remi -
There is a generic method to import georeferenced images into IDV. All
is described in chapter 7.5.2 of the User Guide. However, the image(s)
to be imported have to be in equilateral latlon projection. This works
fine e.g for MODIS where I do the pre-processing down to the euqilateral
with IDL (aghhh!).
For geostationary images you might have to go through McIDAS?
Regarding MODIS in HDF5 format I actually have a long-standing request
with the IDV developers to make this work properly. So far the reader
returns only auxiliary data like sun angles but no image channels.

Dear IDV Users,
I am able to find some geostationary satellite images that I would
like to view in IDV and compare to model output. I am aware that there
is a georeferencing function in IDV ("Geolocate an image"). I dabbled
with it but so far with not much success... Has someone done anything
like this or is there a tutorial somewhere that I could follow?
It would seem that simulating the geostationary projection is not
straightforward...
I am also interested in knowing of other specific examples (e.g.
viewing hdf files from MODIS in IDV in a georeferenced framework, if
at all possible...) !
Thanks a lot for any help possible,
Remi
