This gets the last ScalarMap in the display (which the app knows is
to Shape), gets its RealType, creates a float[][] array, and creates
a Gridded1DSet.

I am travelling until the end of April, and will be very busy after
my return, so please try to figure this out on your own. You can
find more examples of Shape in visad/bom and visad/rabin.
