Is anybody out there remapping NEXRAD Level 2 or level 3 imagery to mercator 
for viewing in GIS tools? I'm using GPNEXR2 to plot the imagery and it seems to 
only work with proj=rad and I really need to get it into mercator. I know I can 
use a tool like gdalwarp to convert from one projection to another but I also 
don't really understand what projection corresponds to the rad projection. Can 
anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
     Greg
