Find out how to transform coordinates using GeoTools

Registered by Olai Solheim

In order to draw, we need to first transform/convert the lat/long coordinates into standard cartesian coordinates. We need to find out how to do this in GeoTools.

Whiteboard

Transforming coordinates is not necessary. We can use GeoTools to draw our data without needing to think about coordinate tranformation :) See new blueprint.

====================================================

Investigated some functionality in GeoTools. Have found a way to transform EPSG 4326 coordinates to EPSG 3785 (a much used CRS used for 2D maps). There are some issues that I haven't figured out, but I will soon add a simple implementation of the conversion soon to get us starting.

Great! Maybe we can see how this is done in OpenLayers...
