Markus,
sorry about the long response time but we have been swamped with getting
all the data on Unidata's IDD system decoded properly. we looked at your
sample file and can actually decode it. the problem is we need to code the
projection 90 Space View Perspective or Orthographic and that is not an
easy task. also we are not familar with this projection. at this point we
don't have the time to code it because of the above tasks and also
Unidata's coming workshops in 2 weeks. i am not saying that
we will not code it, but when we will have the time to code it i cannot
say. that about the best i can say, i know it's not positive.
thanks,
robb...
