Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

This will work for the case where you only want one projection. If you want a more general program where you wanted to change the projection on the fly, you'd probably want to subclass DisplayImpl such that you could set the CoordinateSystem used on the display side, generate new DisplayRealTypes and then automagically rebuild the display. That's what I did ucar.unidata.view.geoloc.MapProjectionDisplay. But, if you want something quick and dirty for a specific projection, follow Bill's steps above. If you have more questions, you can contact me offline (or drop by my office). Don
