#264: SDF Provider: Detect LL84 coordinate system
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Reporter: danstoica | Owner: danstoica
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: 3.3.0
Component: SDF Provider | Version: 3.3.0
Severity: 2 | Keywords:
External_id: 1046674 |
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
The SDF provider doesn't persist the coordionate system name, part of the
unique spatial context. When a valid WKT is missing it is impossible to
say if the csys is lat/long or not. This is essential for computing
correctly area/length. A solution to overcome this limitation is to pass
in the csys name as WKT when the WKT is empty.
Then the provider will check (when necessary) the WKT for popular lat/long
csys like "LL84".
