Hello list, I'm working on two projects where custom CRSs, with custom authorities and IDs are provided. Both projects use IDs with numbers beyond SRID_USR_MAX=998999 [1], which is hardcoded in PostGIS for the spatial_ref_sys id field values. I can use the auth_id, of course, but having to reassign an id < 998999 is a bit problematic for two reasons:
- I have custom transformation pipelines defined inside the proj.db, where the custom IDs are defined for CRSs. - other softwares (QGIS, Geoserver) can use the custom IDs but they cannot match the geometries SRIDs returned PostGIS I wonder if there's a technical reason for the SRID_USR_MAX constant, and if there's any change to remove it in the future. And I wonder if others have faced the problems I'm having due to this, and what are the solutions they came up with. Thanks, Giovanni [1] https://github.com/postgis/postgis/blob/5dc95f1bc3047b048128616d4543b603b8bbdca7/configure.ac#L1554
