[IDV #BKH-196798]: Screencast topic: 3D map from flow vectors and altimetry (sea surface high).

Estefania,

We are a little bit confused about what you are trying to achieve.

The IDV has the capability of viewing a field as topography. Is this what you
are looking for?  (If yes, please read about this topic in the IDV
documentation.) Your data
(global-analysis-forecast-phys-001-002_1420558153422.nc), however, do not
contain any 3D fields or data in the Z dimension, as far as we could tell.

Best,

Unidata IDV Support
