[raster] raster2pgsql support for projection

[robe]

Is there a reason why we don't have ability to do on the fly projection in raster2pgsql like we now have with shp2pgsql?

Wasn't sure.

If we can, the format should follow suit to the shp2pgsql format namely overloading of -s

so

Means source data is in 4326

-s 4326

-s 4326:2163

would mean source is in 4326 but project to 2163.

I suppose it might not work for outdb and not quite sure the ramifications for tiling.

Replying to robe:

Outdb rasters could be a problem though the reprojection could occur on-the-fly when loading data from the outdb raster.

As for why raster doesn't have it, no one asked… :-p
