Unfortunately an error message is returned > to screen: > Fernan, The IDV can only read in the CSV file as the point datatype, there is no way to convert the point data to the grid datatype, so you can not do the iso surface display. You did not include the Jython in your bundle, and I have no idea what is your local function testFunc1000 for. The Gridded Fields in the Fields is for the Objective Analusis of point data, and all the altitude is ignored, so you can not do any 3D grid dataset display.
