AFAIU, you can't simply dd a bootable dvd ISO to a USB disk and have it
work. You have to first download the ISO, and then either burn it to
a physical disc or boot it in a VM and then use the "Create USB" tool
to install it there. I could be wrong about that though, I've only tried
the menu entry method.

see also the usb-hdd "binary-images" pulldown at
  http://live-helper.debian.net/cgi-bin/live-helper 

and the USB install help at
  http://live.debian.net

(fyi a "debian-gis" entry for the --packages-lists pulldown is in the
works,
