Yes you can define your own projections. Coordinate Systems may have arbitrary
direction, but in the particular case of ProjectedCRS the axis directions are

Can geotools handle that?
- in 99.9% spheric coordinates are used, even for calculations. How geotools
represents data internally? In cartesian system or spheric coordinates?
