Hello Agossa

Given that the "Sinusoidal" projection is not yet implemented in GeoTools, it 
need to be implemented first. In order to do that, you need to find the 
equations somewhere (should not be hard) and create a subclass of 
org.geotools.referencing.operation.projection.MapProjection. I suggest that you 
copy the Mercator class, which is relatively simple, and call the copy 
Sinusoidal. If the Sinusoidal projection is defined only on a sphere and not on 
an ellipsoid, then you can delete the "Sphere" inner class.

The formulas need to be implemented in the "transformNormalized" and 
"inverseTransformNormalized" methods. For the former method, input are 
longitudes and latitudes in *radians* and the output are the projected (x,y) 
coordinates in metres. For the later method, this is the converse.

Then you need to defines the projection name and the parameters in the 
"Provider" inner class. Again use the Mercator's one as a template, just 
changing the string values. Use the following as a reference for the values:

     http://www.remotesensing.org/geotiff/proj_list/sinusoidal.html

Finally, you need to add a reference to your Sinusoidal.Provider class in 
META-INF/services/org.geotools.referencing.operation.MathTransformProvider 
file. 
Open that file (it should exists) and just add one line similar to the one that 
already exit in that file.
