Start with Ugo's great VisAD tutorial, linked from the VisAD
home page. Also check Tom's VisAD Python tutorial for programming
VisAD from Python. You can also search Unidata's archive of this
mailing list, perhaps for "base map".

Congrats. Programming in Python may give you more time to
spend with your new son.
