Hello,

LandXML contains a CoordinateSystem element with an optional "ogcWktCode" attribute.


Best regards,

Subject: [PROJ] Formats that use WKT

Hi

For a presentation in FOSSGIS about WKT2 I would like to tell different "storage formats" that use WKT1 or WKT2 (or none but should ;)
Do you know any?

Not so many come to my mind
- LAS 1.4 (WKT1)
- SHP using the esri variant
- GeoTIFF is using its own tags, not WKT
- Geopackage with this extension https://www.geopackage.org/guidance/extensions/wkt_for_crs.html
- PAM file in GDAL, but that is cheating ;)

See that I am looking for formats that store some geo-data, and use WKT to define the CRS (inside or next to it)

Bonus for a "storage format" that uses/supports WKT2!

Thanks!
