[Gdal-dev] WKT files out of date?

[Kenneth Melero]

Chris,

I wonder if this is related to the same issue I found the other day when I
was opening a GDAL generated Alber file in ERDAS and the "image information"
window reposnded that the code was invalid.

Actually I owe Frank a sample file...sorry Frank, I'll get that to you
soon...I was having trouble with my ERDAS.

-Ken

I was working with some gdal code and ran into an issue that the epsg 
code 3005 (BC Albers) isn't in the ogr .wkt files and thus my 
OGRSpatialReference code wasn't working as I expected... AFAICT, it's in 
the latest proj.4 epsg file, but not in the gdal cvs .wkt files. I'm 
surprised it's missing from gdal/ogr... actually, I thought gdal/ogr 
used the proj definition file, until I stated investigating this and 
found otherwise.

I only know about 3005 because it's a relatively new standard to my 
knowledge (should replace 42102 which was previously in common use for 
BC Albers) - so there may be others. Frank, don't you have these 
generated from the same source files or something?

Anyways, I know I can just add it in to my files myself, but I wanted to 
let you know.

Chris
