If there isn't a reader that's already doing what you need then you'll need to import it yourself into paraview. Information on that is on the wiki at <a href="http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView#Importing_Data">http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView#Importing_Data</a> . If any of the vtkNetCDF* readers are close to what you want you it's probably easiest to just build off of those. You can do a search for those readers at <a href="http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classes.html">http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classes.html</a><br>
