Planar view

[Sagittarius]

Hi All,

I followed the quickstart tutorial on the geotools homepage .
This tutorial is working great, but I have a question. I searched the internet for over 2 days, but I couldn't find an answer to it..

The tutorial loads a shapefile and displays it. But as far as I understand, it is projected with a CoordinateReferenceSystem.wgs84.
This way the shapefile isn't planar, but it looks like it is bend over the 'globe'. It isn't that much but you can see it.

What do I have to do to get a planar view, like it is drawn on a peace of paper.
I know you've to do something with the CRS and projection and maybe MathTransform, but I couldn't find a good example.
Maybe it can not be done with the outcome of the tutorial...

I'll hope some could help me, point me in the good direction.

Wrong mailing list my friend. Check website for correct one. There is  
a crs lab which answers your question.

Thanks.

I founded. I looked over it.
