[geotk] prj file

[sorel johann]

If you just want to display them. you can create a fake projection file, 
just add this in the prj file :
GEOGCS["WGS84(DD)",
   DATUM["WGS84",
     SPHEROID["WGS84", 6378137.0, 298.257223563, AUTHORITY["EPSG","7030"]],
     AUTHORITY["EPSG","6326"]],
   PRIMEM["Greenwich", 0.0, AUTHORITY["EPSG","8901"]],
   UNIT["degree", 0.017453292519943295],
   AXIS["Geodetic longitude", EAST],
   AXIS["Geodetic latitude", NORTH]]

That's not great but at least it should be able to display them.

Making false assumption would not be a good solution to solve this issue.
We could add a parameter when we create the datastore to specify the 
crs, that would be much better.

In the end you would obtain something like this :
final Map params = new HashMap();
params.put("url", new URL("....");
params.put("crs", "EPSG:XXXX");
final DataStore ds = DataStoreFinder.getDataStore(params);

Would that be fine for your needs ?
