Hi Javier,

- GeoTIFF is using its own tags, not WKT
    ==> ESRI has actually an extension (supported by GDAL) where they feed ESRI WKT in the PCSCitationGeoKey tag. cf https://github.com/opengeospatial/geotiff/issues/56#issuecomment-451130281
- Geopackage with this extension https://www.geopackage.org/guidance/extensions/wkt_for_crs.html
    ==> WKT1 is part of the core standard. The extension is for additional WKT:2015 support . And the latest GeoPackage 1.4 spec also allows WKT:2019
- PAM file in GDAL, but that is cheating ;)

    ==> almost an industry standard. It has been supported by ArcGIS for decades (https://desktop.arcgis.com/fr/arcmap/latest/manage-data/raster-and-images/auxiliary-files.htm).

"grep -r exportToWkt frmts ogr/ogrsf_frmts" in GDAL also shows:

- netCDF. crs_wkt attribute to the CF CRS encoding
- PDF: in GeoPDF (I don't remember if it is the ISO or OGC Best Practice encoding. but it is the ESRI WKT variant I believe)
- ArcInfo ASCII Grid: ESRI WKT in a .prj
- Oracle GeoRaster: in their spatial_ref_sys table or equivalent. Oracle WKT: an antique & unique sub-dialect of WKT1
- BAG
- SAGA
- Erdas Imagine. ESRI WKT
- TileDB. WKT1 if PROJJSON not available in a (likely GDAL specific) attribute
- MySQL. WKT1 in spatial_ref_sys table
- PostGIS. WKT1 in spatial_ref_sys table
- ESRI FileGeodatabase: ESRI WKT


See that I am looking for formats that store some geo-data, and use WKT to define the CRS (inside or next to it)

Bonus for a "storage format" that uses/supports WKT2!

- FlatGeoBuf, although I realize the spec at https://github.com/flatgeobuf/flatgeobuf/blob/master/src/fbs/header.fbs#L63 isn't super explicit, but GDAL writes WKT:2019 into it

- Zarr. in a GDAL's extension for CRS support
