[PROJ] projinfo EGM2008

[Javier Jimenez Shaw]

Hi

Today I didn't remember the EPSG code for EGM2008, so I did this:

$ projinfo EGM2008 -k crs
WKT2:2019 string:
VDATUM["EGM2008 geoid",
    ID["EPSG",1027]]

But I was expecting the definition of the CRS, not the Datum:

$ projinfo EPSG:3855 -k crs
PROJ.4 string:
+geoidgrids=us_nga_egm08_25.tif +geoid_crs=WGS84 +vunits=m +no_defs
+type=crs

WKT2:2019 string:
VERTCRS["EGM2008 height",
    VDATUM["EGM2008 geoid"],
    CS[vertical,1],
        AXIS["gravity-related height (H)",up,
            LENGTHUNIT["metre",1]],
    USAGE[
        SCOPE["Geodesy."],
        AREA["World."],
        BBOX[-90,-180,90,180]],
    ID["EPSG",3855]]

Is that a bug? Or did I misunderstand the "-k crs" parameter?

Cheers
Javier
