Hi Don,
I prefer to have my data shaped like (lon,lat,alt)->foo but my domain
set can be 100x100x25. I can't use a Linear3DSet because my altitudes
are not regularly spaced and a Gridded3DSet requires 250000 values, most
of which are redundant. As I understand it, I could define the set as a
ProductSet of 3 Gridded1DSets with 225 (100+100+25) values. Just thought
I'd try to reduce memory usage a bit. No Biggie.
Thanks,
Doug

Has the state of ProductSet changed since then?
Not really. However there have been other VisAD improvements
that help, like the CartesianProductCoordinateSystem which
allows you to make a "product" of multiple CoordinateSystems.
Is there a particular need to use ProductSet? As you know,
there are many ways to skin the same cat in VisAD.
