Re: [visad] Axis labels with Display side CoordinateSystem

how i can display the coordinates of the (UTM) CoordinasSystem on the

Display.Latitude/Longitude and Display.XAxis/Yxis? (p.e.
(Latitude,Longitude) -> (Northing,Easting))

Julien Chastang of the IDV group is working on this now for the IDV. There is no simple way, especially when the projection is not rectillinear. Basically, you would have to compute the UTM values at lat/lon points along the x and y axes and then use a custom Hashtable for a mapping of X/Y value to Easting/Northing.

You might try adding a data reference with just a GriddedSet of the Northing/Easting values and then map Easting to Display.XAxis and Northing to Display.YAxis. I'm not sure it would work if you had the set with a CoordinateSystem of (Latitude,Longitude) -> (Northing, Easting) but if that's easier, you could give that a try.
