Description

Australia has released a new datum GDA2020 that will eventually replace GDA94.

There has been a set of transformation grids released to help people convert their datasets.

GDAL/OGR should add support for these conversions.

The grids were released in proj-datumgrid https://github.com/OSGeo/proj-datumgrid/releases/tag/oceania-1.0. I presume that support will automatically happen when you have the latest proj-datumgrid installed on your system?

Replying to andrewharvey:

You will have to specify them in the proj.4 string to express the transformations.
