Rob
I am having a little problem finding the GRIB code in the THREDDS
package on the Unidata site.
Please give me a little more info on how to download the packages.
Thanks

Hi Rob:
Actually, this should work, i believe its a bug, ill let you know when
we have a fix.
BTW, a workaround is to open the file locally in the IDV, and then copy
the generated index (*.gbx) onto the web server in the same directory.
This will speed access up, so its a good thing to do anyway.

the THREDDS package using nj22 already handles grib2 as well as grib1.
the grib decoders are written in java and can be used as a seperate
package. the IDV now can read grib1 and grib2 files directly.
robb...
Hmmm, I've got IDV 1.2b2 and tried to point it via URL (directly) to a
grib1 and grib2 file and fails. I would be wonderful to have IDV work
directly on grib1 and grib2 files.

Open data source via web -> Grid files (netCDF/GRIB/OPeNDAP). Looks
like
the grid types are correctly detected.
