As AeonFlux linked you, Joshua Marinacci's blog is the best resource to get started. There are six articles he wrote that I have used to get up to speed with JXMapViewer. In order of publication:

In addition, here are some other resources I have found useful:

The best combination of functionality I have found uses the latest continuous build of SwingX-WS, which is that JAR built on April 16, 2008 (direct link). However, some things have changed in SwingX-1.0 and that latest SwingX-WS JAR won't work with SwingX-1.0. So I had to download SwingX 0.9.7 (direct link to the JAR). You'll need both the swingx-0.9.7.jar file as well as the swingx-beaninfo-0.9.7.jar.
