Hi Luis,

      There is nothing special in the TC-IDV. It is a plugin built for a 
research institute in the China to access their database and some special 
parameters only available to them. All the features related to the cyclone are 
available in our general release. Let us know if you have any question or 
suggestion.


Thanks,


Yuan
