The CoordinateSystem (CS) maps in both "to" and
"from" directions, so in theory this should not
matter. However, there is a problem in VisAD: you
cannot display data defined in the reference (x, y)
coordinates in a Display defined by ScalarMaps of
the (easting, northing) coordinates. If your CS
has reference coordinates (x, y) and you want to
display data defined in (x, y), then your ScalarMaps
must be defined in terms of x and y.

If you cannot define your Display in terms of
ScalarMaps of x and y, then you will need to extract
the numerical arrays from imageField (read by the
DefaultFamily.open() method) and use them to construct
a new Field defined in terms of a new RealTupleType
(xnew, ynew) with a CS with reference (easting, northing).

You failed to follow my suggestion because your
GeoToImageCoordinateSystem iCord has reference
(RealType.XAxis, RealType.YAxis) (which should not
be confused with Display.XAxis and Display.YAxis),
but then RealType.XAxis and RealType.YAxis have no
relation to x and y, the domain coordinates of
imageField. Because of this lack of a relation,
the system has no information about how to combine
imageField with domain (x, y) and demField with
domain (easting, northing).

Also, the statement:

  Field newDemfield = demField.resample(imageDomainSet);

is unnecessary. This operation will be implicit in
FieldImpl.combine() if there is a CS that defines a
relation between (x, y) and (easting, northing).

Good luck,
Bill
