Hi Mike,
Two issues here...
Firstly, on the code not working, it looks like a bug in the
JTS.transform method. It is allocating an array for the destination
ordinates based on the number of sourceCRS dimensions (2 in this case)
but it should be based on the number of target CRS dimensions instead.
I'll create an issue for it. Meanwhile here is a work-around...
private double[] latLongToCartesian(double longitude, double
latitude) throws Exception {
CoordinateReferenceSystem sourceCRS = DefaultGeographicCRS.WGS84;
CoordinateReferenceSystem targetCRS = DefaultGeocentricCRS.CARTESIAN;
MathTransform transform = CRS.findMathTransform(sourceCRS,
targetCRS, false);
double[] srcPt = {longitude, latitude};
double[] dstPt = new double[transform.getTargetDimensions()];
transform.transform(srcPt, 0, dstPt, 0, 1);
return dstPt;
}
Secondly, and more importantly, I don't think you want to do this :)
You could just plot them directly, especially if your points are close
together, unless you are working close to a pole in which case you
could choose an appropriate projected CRS to minimize distortion. If
the points are dotted around the world you might want to choose
something like the Robinson projection.
Hope this helps,
Michael
