Hi, Currently, there are no raster formats that use this projection method. These are more likely to be used with GCP's or in metadata. But in the future, these could be used with raster formats - e.g, JPL's UAVSAR data.
Are there other parts of GDAL where support for the new projection needs to be included, if assuming, some raster format needed to use it?
