The GEON project is using the IDV for visualizing some solid earth data.
Examples are at:

http://geon.unavco.org/unavco/SZ/SZ.html

There is an example of using the IDV to visualize some gridded ocean
data through the Displays->Favorite Bundles->Ocean->El Nino/La Nina Comparison
menu item.

What type of data are you particularly interested in?
