SRS/CRS Identifier Consistency #17

Description

@johnx25bd

Priority: Medium

Description

Records API returns srs: "EPSG:4326" in examples, while elsewhere the documentation recommends OGC CRS URIs and defaults to CRS84.

This is another schema drift symptom and creates practical integration headaches (clients must normalize CRS identifiers).

Fix Direction

  • Standardize on one CRS identifier format across all documentation
  • Document the canonical format (recommend OGC URIs: http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/OGC/1.3/CRS84)
  • Note EPSG:4326 vs CRS84 axis order differences if relevant
  • Update all examples to use consistent identifiers
