Thanks for the info both of you.
It is a recurring issue for me (and my work with gdal/GRASS),
please contact me when you are up to tricks on that,
I will try to find time to give a hand.
Cheers,
Yann

Yann,
Yes there has been no movement on pushing the planetary projection codes
as simple script or function call within GDAL. Instead of expanding all the
definitions as a large ASCII file, this method would allow us to more
easily grow once updated radii values are defined. The lunar definition is
not changing anytime soon but bodies like Mercury and even Mars will have
updates. Thus once the IAU publishes a new set of definitions, we will need
a new namespace (e.g. IAU2015). Most bodies will be the same but having a
flexible system which takes the smallest footprint would be best. Anyway, I
am hoping to move this issue forward by either finding time or funding a
contract.
As an alternative to the urn:ogc and the need for the local iau2000.wkt
file, you can use a an http address also. For example:
$ gdalsrsinfo "http://spatialreference.org/ref/iau2000/49900/";
PROJ.4 : '+proj=longlat +a=3396190 +b=3376200 +no_defs '
OGC WKT :
GEOGCS["Mars 2000",
DATUM["D_Mars_2000",
SPHEROID["Mars_2000_IAU_IAG",3396190.0,169.89444722361179]],
PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],
UNIT["Decimal_Degree",0.0174532925199433]]

sorry, I get this from Ubuntu, thus my question.
gdalsrsinfo urn:ogc:def:crs:IAU2000:30100
ERROR 1: ERROR - failed to load SRS definition from

I think this dates back to ancient GDAL versions but you need to add the
iau2000.wkt file in the GDAL data directory.

Yann,
I have recovered a old script I made about 1.5 year ago (and about 1+
version of Ubuntu away) to process Chandrayaan-M3 Moon data in
IAU2000:30100 and it seems that gdal_translate/gdalwarp do not know
that
code anymore.
Looking at the code you need to use a OGC URN:
$ gdalsrsinfo urn:ogc:def:crs:IAU2000:30100
PROJ.4 : '+proj=longlat +a=1737400 +b=1737400 +no_defs '
OGC WKT :
GEOGCS["Moon 2000",
DATUM["D_Moon_2000",
SPHEROID["Moon_2000_IAU_IAG",1737400.0,0.0]],
PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],
UNIT["Decimal_Degree",0.0174532925199433]]
This is not a blocker, since the wkt style works like a charm.
We had discussions earlier about planetary support in this list, among
whom Trent was involved (IIRC). Does anybody have any update about the
status change for the newest version of GDAL?
Status quo.
