As the Jet color palette has become somewhat of a meme in the scientific community, I think it would be nice to have some alternatives built into oxyplot. matplotlib has some nice colormaps specifically designed for data visualization, which are under public domain. Specifically I think the following colormaps would be nice to integrate:

• viridis
• plasma
• magma
• inferno
• cividis

Sources for the RGB data of these color maps:
