Overview
The Omni controls consist of a VisAD Spread Sheet, loaded with the parameter selected and its coordinates and units. The Spread Sheet is used to create a display where the user has complete control over which coordinates are the axes, how it is colored, and so on. Use of the VisAD Spread Sheet is not described here. See the VisAD Spread Sheet document at https://www.ssec.wisc.edu/~curtis/ss.html.
