If it is merely plotting over a background image it is already possible,
as Ethan said. Or do you also intend some RGB to x-y(-Y) or even
spectrum to x-y(-Y) conversion? This would require to include the RGB to
XYZ matrices and/or the CIE colour matching functions.

Another question would be whether it should be CIE 1931 2-deg standard
observer only or also include the CIE 1964 10-deg standard observer. CIE
1931 seems to be outdated although it is still used for the definition
of sRGB (the differences in the image would be small anyway).


Best wishes,

Ingo
