OK I found a workaround for the problem. I wrote a simple method that projects the data from the CRS they are really in, into the CRS defined by the EPSG code.
Here it is: public void reproject(DataStore dataStore, String sourceName, CoordinateReferenceSystem currentCRS, CoordinateReferenceSystem targetCRS) throws IOException { SimpleFeatureSource sfs = dataStore.getFeatureSource(sourceName); SimpleFeatureType schema = sfs.getSchema(); Transaction transaction = new DefaultTransaction("reproject"); try { MathTransform transform = CRS.findMathTransform(currentCRS, targetCRS, true); FeatureWriter<SimpleFeatureType, SimpleFeature> writer = dataStore.getFeatureWriter(schema.getTypeName(), transaction); int i=0; while(writer.hasNext()) { System.out.println(i++ + ". ================"); SimpleFeature feature = writer.next(); Geometry geometry = (Geometry) feature.getDefaultGeometry(); System.out.println(geometry); geometry = JTS.transform(geometry, transform); System.out.println(geometry); feature.setDefaultGeometry(geometry); writer.write(); } writer.close(); transaction.commit(); } catch(IOException | FactoryException | MismatchedDimensionException | TransformException e) { e.printStackTrace(); transaction.rollback(); } } The arguments are as follows: dataStore - the connection to postgis and oraclespatial sourceName - the layer name that will be projected currentCRS - the CRS that data geometry is stored in targetCRS - the CRS the geometries will transform into What I have noticed is that the transformation simply changed the order of X and Y coordinates. An example is here: MULTILINESTRING ((6438680.67 6038236.779999999, 6438682.31 6038237.07, 6438682.78 6038236.880000001, 6438683.83 6038236.050000001)) MULTILINESTRING ((6038236.779999999 6438680.67, 6038237.07 6438682.31, 6038236.880000001 6438682.78, 6038236.050000001 6438683.83)) The first geometry was before the projection. I think that geotools team should take a look at my example, because something wrong is going on around those CRS definitions or their transformations. My udig uses geotools 9.0 and as I said before - the data looked fine there.
