We've had a problem with scaling of location displays.

The xml is georss. Other than the geo:lat, geo:lon fields we really don't know
what the other fields are (e.g., dc:subject) so we really have nothing to go on.
If you guys really need this you could always write a proxy-cgi thing on the 
unavco
web site that fetches the georss and converts it to the idv locations xml 
format on the
fly.

If you call it <anything>locations.xml the idv will pick it up as a location 
file.
You can always look at the patterns defined in IdvResourceManager:
   public static final IdvResource RSC_LOCATIONS =
        new XmlIdvResource("idv.resource.locations",
                           "Fixed station locations",
                           "(locations.*\\.xml$|locations.*\\.csv$)");
