Re: [udig-devel] thoughts about projection

Hi Andrea,

The default projection of the uDig map is lat-long (unless you change the preferences). But the FeatureStore always returns the features in the same projection as the layer (at least right now). It is a pain and there is work to make Query's take a Destination CRS so that you can request the projection from the datastore and not have to reproject. But that has to be put in all the datastores so will take a little while yet.

To reproject a Geometry:

JTS.transform( Geometry, MathTransform ).

A transform can be created from a layer or by calling:

CRS.findMathTransform( from, to )

while I was testing a piece of code it occurred to me the following:

- I had loaded a grass raster, which was in gauss-boaga (I loaded that
first, since that doesn't support on the fly reprojection)
- after that I loaded a shapfile in UTM
- they fit perfectly
- the piece of code at a certain point needs to get the elevations of
the shape nodesextracted from the raster (dtm)

What happens is that the features I got from the layer are in their
original reference system and obviously do not fit the raster.
Is that how it should be? I was expecting to get what I saw.
Anyone any thought about that?

Thanks,
Andrea
