[Geotools-devel] The sad state of Oracle CRS parsing

[Andrea A. <aa...@op...>]

Hi,
today I tried out latest Martin improvements in parsing broken Oracle
WKT specs.
Well, it works for GEOGCS types (hurray for Martin) but unfortunately
not for projected ones (thumbs down for Oracle). The issue is, they do 
use projection identifiers that do not conform to the
EPSG database. For example, 3005, British Columbia equal area,
has the following projection identifier "British Columbia Albers (EPSG 
OP 19984)" whilst the correct one is "Albers Equal Area".
The last hope is that 19984 could be used to inspect an EPSG database
(the hsql one) and come up with the real projection name.
Martin, is this possible?

Cheers
Andrea
