Coordinate projection with GeoTools

Question

I'm tackling a simple task: creating CoordinateReferenceSystem from EPSG code using

String code = "26910";
CoordinateReferenceSystem crs = ReferencingFactoryFinder.getCRSAuthorityFactory
("EPSG",null).createCoordinateReferenceSystem(code);

This snippet produces:

`Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.hsqldb.lib.FrameworkLogger

I'm interested in using hsqldb. hsqldb-2.2.8.jar's in the CLASSPATH. How should I organise DB connection in java code?

UPDATE

My main goal is to get a handle on coordinate conversion using GeoTools, but doesn't seem to be easy. Please see the buggy code below:

import org.geotools.referencing.CRS;
import org.opengis.referencing.FactoryException;
import org.opengis.referencing.crs.CoordinateReferenceSystem;
import org.opengis.referencing.operation.MathTransform;
import org.geotools.geojson.geom.GeometryJSON;
import com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Geometry;
import org.geotools.geometry.jts.*;

import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.IOException;

//------------------------------

    CoordinateReferenceSystem sourceCRS = null;
    CoordinateReferenceSystem targetCRS = null;
    try {
        sourceCRS = CRS.decode("epsg:4326");
        System.out.println("SOURCE \n" + sourceCRS);

        targetCRS = CRS.decode("epsg:23032");
        System.out.print("\nTARGET \n" + targetCRS);

        MathTransform transform = CRS.findMathTransform(sourceCRS, targetCRS, true);

        GeometryJSON jsonReader = new GeometryJSON();
        Geometry sourceGeometry = jsonReader.read(new FileInputStream("simple-geometry.json"));
        System.out.println("\n" + sourceGeometry.getCoordinate().toString());

        //the problem's here
        Geometry targetGeometry = JTS.transform(sourceGeometry, transform);

    } catch (FactoryException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

The point is that my IDE cannot resolve JTS.transform(/.../).

I have gt-epsg-hsql-13.0, gt-geojson-13.0, gt-jts-wrapper-13.0, gt-opengis-13.0, gt-referencing-13.0, jts-1.13 in CLASSPATH.

My pom.xml is:

Does any one know what seem to be the problem?

Answer 1

The easiest way to generate a Coordinate System is to use the following code:

CoordinateReferenceSystem crs = null;
try {

    crs = CRS.decode("epsg:26910");
    System.out.println("got "+crs);

} catch (FactoryException e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    e.printStackTrace();
}

Making sure you have the following in your pom file

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.geotools</groupId>
        <artifactId>gt-referencing</artifactId>
        <version>${geotools.version}</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.geotools</groupId>
        <artifactId>gt-epsg-hsql</artifactId>
        <version>${geotools.version}</version>
    </dependency>
