If you mean volumetric visualization, there is no support for it in GrADS.
However, there are several free options using python, for example, MayaVi:

       http://mayavi.sourceforge.net/screenshots/index.html

You can use PyGrADS to pull out 3D arrays from GrADS and then use MayaVi for
the 3D plots. At some point I'll add a more direct interface to MayaVi from
PyGrADS but I do not have time to work on it at the moment. If there are
volunteers out there, please let me know.
