Xiaofei,

          The "beach ball" layout model is available, but you need to create 
one. Here is some detail instruction:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/docs/workshop/resources/stationmodel/StationModelEditor.html

This instruction  presents a more complicated layout model, what you need is 
much simple, in the layout model editor, you
only need to select "Shape" and specify the shape as "Circle" or "Filled 
Circle". It is optional to relate the "Color By" and "Scale Size"
to parameters of your dataset.
