Read the values as 4 bytes, turn them into an int, then use 
Float.intBitsToFloat.  Something like this (uncompiled and untested, but 
if you treat it as pseudocode, it should more or less work).

     float readBigEndianFloat(InputStream in) throws IOException {
         DataInputStream dataIn = new DataInputStream(in);
         byte[] bytes = new byte[4];
         dataIn.readFully(bytes);
         int i = (byte[3] << 24) | (byte[2] << 16) | (byte[1] << 8) | 
byte[0];
         return Float.intBitsToFloat(i);
     }
