Hello, I have been slamming my head against the wall for the past week trying
to do exactly the same thing.

I want to generate random points within the United States, I planned on
using the polygon features of JTS to do this operation, but I'm confused how
to create an accurate polygon from lat/lng points.  Did you ever find a
solution to this problem?  I would greatly appreciate any help.

I can't believe this is so hard, it seems like such a common problem that
many applications should have solved already.

I tried doing something like below, but there is no transformatin for this.

CoordinateReferenceSystem sourceCRS =
org.geotools.referencing.crs.DefaultGeographicCRS.WGS84;
CoordinateReferenceSystem targetCRS =
org.geotools.referencing.crs.DefaultEngineeringCRS.CARTESIAN_2D;

MathTransform transform =  CRS.findMathTransform(sourceCRS, targetCRS);
Geometry targetGeometry = JTS.transform(srcGeomotry, transform);
