Hi Rahan, I think it would benefit you to study the documentation: IDV User Guide: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/docs/userguide/ IDV Workshop Material: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/docs/workshop/ IDV Video Tutorials: http://goo.gl/n0Frpb At any rate, assuming your (netCDF?) gridded data is standards (e.g., CF) compliant, you can go to the IDV Dashboard, Data Choosers tab and select your gridded data file, and "Add Source". That action will take you to the Field Selector. At that point you can select a field and visualize it with a Data Probe/Time Series Display.
