Domain-specific

• Well-Known Text Representation of Coordinate Reference Systems
  • A WKT string nests typed elements—such as a geodetic reference frame, ellipsoid, coordinate system, axes, units, conversion method, parameters, identifiers, scope, and extent—so software and people can exchange an interpretable CRS definition without relying only on a short external code.
