Description (last modified by ychemin)

Getting IAU2000 and IAU2009 Datum support in GDAL.

There is a bit of C code (https://github.com/YannChemin/iau2wkt) translated from Trent Hare's Python code (https://github.com/USGS-Astrogeology/GDAL_scripts/tree/master/OGC_IAU2000_WKT_v2/Source_Python) in the Paris OSGeo code sprint last year that could be inserted, it is generating 2 csv files (IAU2000.csv, IAU2009.csv) that store descriptions ready to be used by GDAL, in a similar way as EPSG codes.
