Crate proj_wkt 

Parser for WKT and PROJ format CRS strings.

Converts CRS definition strings into proj_core::CrsDef values that can be used with proj_core::Transform::from_crs_defs().

Supported formats

• Authority codes: "EPSG:4326" — delegates to proj-core’s registry
• PROJ strings: "+proj=utm +zone=18 +datum=WGS84" — parsed into CrsDef
• WKT1: GEOGCS[...] / PROJCS[...] — extracts AUTHORITY tag when present, otherwise parses projection parameters
• WKT2/PROJJSON compound CRS: parses explicit vertical CRS components for equality-checked z preservation and same-reference vertical unit conversion

Custom CRS definitions are only accepted when their semantics fit the proj_core::CrsDef model: longitude/latitude geographic coordinates in degrees with a Greenwich prime meridian, projected coordinates with easting/northing axis order, and compound vertical components that can be preserved or unit-converted only when source and target vertical CRS definitions use the same vertical reference frame. Unsupported axis-order, prime-meridian, geographic angular-unit, and vertical transformation semantics are rejected.

Example

use proj_wkt::parse_crs;
use proj_core::Transform;

let from = parse_crs("+proj=longlat +datum=WGS84").unwrap();
let to = parse_crs("EPSG:3857").unwrap();
let t = Transform::from_crs_defs(&from, &to).unwrap();
let (x, y) = t.convert((-74.006, 40.7128)).unwrap();
