Reverse engineer the proper SRS from data when possible
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-848
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-848
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Configuration
Affects Versions: 1.5.0-beta1, 1.4.0
Reporter: Andrea Aime
Assigned To: dblasby
Fix For: 1.4.1, 1.5.0
Find a way to reverse engineer the SRS information from data when the data store has that kind of information.
This can be done in various ways, Simone suggests:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actually there is a possible (dumb?) optimization that is create a CRS
from the WKT and ask a code to it. Sometime there is an EPSG code
mebedded into the WKT this way you will spot it.
In the more general case we would need to extend EPSG factory based on
theEPSG sql definition in order to try a query directly to the db.
The last, worst option is a full search for equality 
.
