Hi Thomas:
In order for the IDV, or other programs using the netCDF-Java library to
display data correctly, it must be able to recognize the coordinate systems of
the file. The file must use a Conventions like CF or COARDS, that the library
understands. This can be a subtle problem to diagnose, it can depend on global
attributes, etc, although it can also be as simple as adding the Conventions
attribute.
You could try sending your file through here:
http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/cdmValidate.html
and see if the results are helpful.
Or look at it in the ToolsUI program (coordinate system Tab) and see what the
INFO button tells you.
