[gdal-dev] Get area of use of a spatial reference system

Hi all,


I am wondering if GDAL has a method that returns the area of use/the areas epsg code of a particular spatial reference system.

>From what I could find (e.g. in the OGRSpatialReference class doc and in the data provided in GDALs share folder) I think it's not possible. It seems a little bit strange as other information (like Inverse Flattening, Semi Major Axis etc.) from the EPSG dataset is present and can be accessed via methods in OGRSpatialReference.


I'd be happy if anyone can clarify this for me and, at best, prove me wrong ;)



Thanks,


Marcel
