The neo4j-spatial project provides a GeoTools datastore, since it is also a
schema-less database you may find their source relevant to your work on
mongo. See
http://github.com/neo4j/neo4j-spatial/
I was surprised not to see a mention of Mongo's spatial indexing here:
http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Geospatial+Indexing
>From reading the docs, I guess it is only suitable for points and not aware
of projection information, but it still seems worth a mention.
