Re: interpolation of irregular grids

[Jonathan Callahan <Jonathan.S.Callahan@xxxxxxxx>]

Jean-Marie,

I'm not sure what you mean by "generic grids".  We use the phrase 
"curvilinear coordinates" to cover an entire range of coordinate systems 
where the grids are not rectilinear.  LAS and Ferret can also work with 
"scattered data" that have no underlying grid at all.  In both of those 
cases, Ferret doesn't need to do any interpolation:  it can plot the 
data on its native, curvilinear grid or as a scatter of colored points, 
respectively.

An example netCDF file (or the 'ncdump -h' for one) would help a lot in 
figuring out what you're trying to do.  Visualizations of your data from 
other packages would also be tremendously helpful.
