Katja,
Glad you found the problem, the grib package has been much work. If you look at the netcdf-java page, you will see that it's integrated into that package and then one doesn't have to deal with the details of grib. 

RObb...

Dear Mr. Kambic,

my name is Katja Moritz and i am working for the Bavarian Environment Agency in 
Munich, Germany at the Flood Information Centre.
Since the German Wether Service (DWD) will provide us in the future with 
grib2-data it is my task to process this data.
We already use some Java-Applications so it would be great, if we could use 
your Java-Decoder!
I already made a first attempt to read a testfile from the DWD (see 
attachement) and it worked out fine. Only the values i receive with the 
getData()-Method of the Grib2DataSection can't be correct - they are fare too 
negative. I already compared the values with the values i get with the 
C-program GRIB API (ECMWF). Those values looked ok.
What do you think is wrong with the data? Do i use your code correctly?

Many thanks in advance und many greetings from Munich!

Yours sincerely,
Katja Moritz
