[Geotools-gt2-users] Projection issue!?!

[Christian W. <chr...@fu...>]

Hi folks, 

Wonder if you can please help....  I have a shapefile which has the
following projection: Clarke_1866_Lambert_Conformal_Conic.

Is there a way of easily converting the feature geometry to decimal
degrees?  When I read the coordinates of a feature using:

        .
        .       
        Geometry geometry = feature.getDefaultGeometry();
        Coordinate[] coordinates = geometry.getCoordinates();
        .
        .

I am getting latitude/longitude values like
7405084.173229428/346954.9647331293 which I am unfamiliar with, I'd be
much more comfortable with decimal degrees.

Thanks for your help ;)
