[visad] Polar Representation Radar Data

Hi VisAD people,

I am using the visad.bom.Radar2DCoordinateSystem to resample and
visualize some radar data.

As we can see in the picture "radar_Linear2DSet.png", the data are not in polar 
representation.

This is happening because I might be using the method Linear2DSet.

What is the correct way to make the representation in polar coordinates?

The Application Unidata IDV (see picture "radar_polar_IDV.png") is the 
representation of data from radars in polar coordinates equal to I want to do. How?

Following excerpt from my source code:

setRadar = new Linear2DSet(domain_tuple, radarlimites[2], radarlimites[3],
                   800, radarlimites[0], radarlimites[1],
                   360);

latMap.setRange(radarlimites[2], radarlimites[3]);
lonMap.setRange(radarlimites[0], radarlimites[1]);

vals_ff = getFieldPolar((int) srf.getNumero_BINS_ou_Linhas(),
                       (int) srf.getNumero_Raios_ou_Colunas(),
                       (float) srf.getLatitude(), (float) srf.getLongitude(),
                       srf.getTamanho_Bin_ou_celula(), srf.getDados());

vals_ff = (FlatField) vals_ff.resample(setRadar, visad.Data.NEAREST_NEIGHBOR,
                       visad.Data.NO_ERRORS);

radarMap.setRange(0, 72);

ColorAlphaControl rgbControl = (ColorAlphaControl) radarMap.getControl();

cores = new float[][]{{0f, 0.98f, 0f}, {0f, 0.81f, 0f}, {0f, 0.7f, 0f}, {0f, 
0.59f, 0f}, {0f, 0.47f, 0f}, {0f, 0.33f, 0f}, {0f, 0.22f, 0f}, {0.98f, 0.95f,

//Seta a escala de cores

//Toca plotar
if (radarRef == null) {
        radarRef = new DataReferenceImpl("radarref");
