class and access the conversion methods epsgToWkt() and wktToEpsg().
Usage
Documentation
The package works by querying the included SQLite database. The database has a table called 'epsg' which has mappings of Well-known Text strings to EPSG codeswhich. It has three columns:
- epsg
- name
- wkt
The the two conversion methods simply query the respective field and return the corresponding value from the other column (as per the method you are calling).
The sqlite database (epsg.db) is created by scrapping the Projected Coordinate Systems page (https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/3/jshelp/pcs.html) from ESRI's arcgis website.
Since Projected Coordinate Systems page might get updated, I have included with this library, the python3 script that I used to scrape and generate the database. To do so, just run the script (esri_scrapper.py) from the esri directory.
I made this library because I had the need to identify the EPSG code of a shapefile (the CRS of the shapefile), especially when importing into PostGIS. I use the php-shapefile library which will read and return to you the raw WKT text from the .prj file but will not provide you with the EPSG SRID.
