Carsten, The very latest VisAD revision contains an error message in GoesCollaboration which tells users where to find these data files if they aren't present at runtime. You can find these data files at: ftp://demedici.ssec.wisc.edu/pub/visad-2.0/paoloa-files.tar.Z Let us know if this doesn't fix the problem. Tom Rink
