[IDV #LZQ-312014]: Error reading MADIS mesonet data as type "NetCDF Point Data files"

Dave,
When accessing netcdf files via a web server the server needs to be configured 
to support 
The web server needs to be configured to accept byte ranges:
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html
Basically this allows clients to access a file via http like a random access 
file.

That said - there can be major performance hits when accessing some types of 
netcdf files this way. Grids work pretty well because the client makes one call 
to the server and slurps up a bunch of bytes. However, for finer grained data 
like point data there can be many reads back and forth to the server to access 
the data. Each of those reads takes alot of time due to network latency.
