#4277: ST_GeomFromGeoJSON: default SRID to 4326
---------------------+---------------------------
Reporter: komzpa | Owner: pramsey
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: medium | Milestone: PostGIS 2.5.2
Component: postgis | Version: 2.4.x
Keywords: |
---------------------+---------------------------
We're only setting SRID on parse if it's specified in GeoJSON. It is
implied to be what we call EPSG:4326 by RFC7946:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7946
```
The coordinate reference system for all GeoJSON coordinates is a
geographic coordinate reference system, using the World Geodetic
System 1984 (WGS 84) [WGS84] datum, with longitude and latitude units
of decimal degrees. This is equivalent to the coordinate reference
system identified by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) URN
urn:ogc:def:crs:OGC::CRS84.
