See visad/examples/Test34.java.  It displays a data object
(a FlatField named histogram1) with MathType
 
  (ir_radiance -> count)
 
that is displayed according to the ScalarMaps:
 
  ir_radiance -> XAxis
  count -> YAxis
  count -> Green
 
The visad.paoloa.GoesCollaboration.java also has four simple
x, y plots in its display2.

A MathType may be a primitive type, or may be a composite type
built up from primitive types.  So in Test34.java, ir_radiance
and count are primitive types (in VisAD, they are called RealTypes
or TextTypes) and thus also MathTypes, and (ir_radiance -> count) 
is a composite MathType but not a primitive type.
 
Cheers,
Bill
