Description
DWithin filter does not work across the antimeridian
Test case:
val sft = SimpleFeatureTypes.createType("test", "geom:Point:srid=4326") val feature = ScalaSimpleFeature.create(sft, "1", "POINT (178 0)") val ecql = "dwithin('POINT (-179 0)', geom, 2500, kilometers)" val fast = FastFilterFactory.toFilter(sft, ecql) println(fast.evaluate(feature))
Excepted output is true as the feature distance is ~333 km (false.

Thanks for filing this! The issue seems tricky - none of the distance ops seem to account for the CRS, they are purely geometric ops (not geographic ones). I’m not sure of the best solution here.

Research direction
Start with the DWithin test case using FastFilterFactory and the antimeridian coordinates shown in the issue. Inspect the distance operations and CRS handling noted in the discussion, then verify that evaluating the example feature returns true and that related distance behavior remains correct.
