Hi Eric, I think you might want:
_ShapefileDataStore.getSchema().getDefaultGeometry().getCoordinateSystem (); At least it works for the data I am trying to create an image of. I am using 2.3.1.

If you can get the Features, you should be able to get the CRS from the metadata. The demo code in demo/introduction should tell you where it hides. I can't remember it off the top of my head and you can look at the code as easily as I can. ;-) > > Thanks a lot, > --adrian ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
