Hi, Charlie!
Does the following URL [1] work on your Chromebook showing Google Earth?
If so, I think you (or your students) can write some JavaScript that
1) requests lat/lon/data from THREDDS/OPeNDAP in ASCII with constraint
expression
2) parse it and build KML using polygon drawing or place marker
3) run the code from [1]
I've played the above idea a little bit last night after seeing your
message with my Chrome but I could not confirm it with
Chromebook/ChromeOS.
Regards,
