CSV files of more than 4 Gb size is an absolute nogo to me...
Usually and for almost all purposes I could think of, NCDF files is the
best format I know for geolocalized data. Especially since version 4,
with large files support and compression option. I don't know how does
ArcMap handle those, though...

For smaller data sets, I've exported ESRI Shapefiles (IDLffShape), which has worked well, but I'm bumping against the 2 GB file size limit now. IDL appears to write files up to 4 GB that ArcMap can read (both programs disregarding the spec in the same way), but 4 GB appears to be the final limit.

What About CSV files. If you write it in CSV, you could import it to ArcMap directly.
