20031007: IDV feedback

Tony,  

To make a 500 mb geopotential height plot see
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/IDV/docs/UserGuide/IDV_Tutorial.html#grids
This tells how to make a contour plot of a 3d temperature grid at 500mb.
You can do the same thing for the 3d geopotential height parameter.

You can set contours using the contour control
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/IDV/docs/UserGuide/IDV_contourcontrols.html

To make station plots see 
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/IDV/docs/UserGuide/IDV_Tutorial.html#sao
and
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/IDV/docs/UserGuide/IDV_stationmodeleditor.html

Let me know if this answers your questions.
