[IDV #JEZ-480394]: Contour calculation algorithm

> Dear Sirs,
> I am interested in the contour calculations - for example generating
> 1000 hPa contours/isobars from the gridded sea level pressure data over
> the globe.
> I have downloaded the IDV sources, but I could not find the algorithm
> (simple grep for Contour did not find any calculations, just
> configuration and so).
> Since IDV software displays the contours, let me please ask a question:
> - are the contour calculation algorithms included in the IDV sources
> (somewhere in ucar.unidata or ucar.visad packages) ? - if yes, could you
> please send me a pointer ?

Hi Martin,
    The contour calculation in the IDV is done by the VisAD library. You can 
reference

http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/~billh/visad.html 

for more detail information.
