This commit moves the following requirement from
ProjMethodGeoKeytoProjectionGeoKey:The previous location was incorrect because projection methods do not contain parameter values. So providing an EPSG code for
ProjMethodGeoKeyis not a replacement to providing parameter values whenProjectionGeoKeyis user-defined. With this pull request, the new requirement inProjectionGeoKeybecome (new part in italic):And the old requirement in
ProjMethodGeoKeybecome:The reason for the above is that projection methods are usually mapped to hard-coded formulas in map projection software. If the projection method is not known to the software, there is almost nothing the software can do.
This commit also renames
ProjectionMethodGeoKeyasProjMethodGeoKey. The old name seems a mistake.
