Coordinate Reference System Format Conversion

Description
Type in a Coordinate Reference System (CRS) definition and find its representation in various formats. Supported input formats are:
- proj strings
- WKT strings
- object codes (e.g. "EPSG:4326", "ESRI:31493", "urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326", "urn:ogc:def:coordinateOperation:EPSG::1671")
- object names (e.g. "WGS 84", "WGS 84 / UTM zone 31N", "Germany_Zone_3". In this case as uniqueness is not guaranteed, heuristics are applied to determine the appropriate best match.
- OGC URN combining references for compound CRS (e.g "urn:ogc:def:crs,crs:EPSG::2393,crs:EPSG::5717" or custom abbreviated syntax "EPSG:2393+5717")
- OGC URN combining references for concatenated operations (e.g. "urn:ogc:def:coordinateOperation,coordinateOperation:EPSG::3895,coordinateOperation:EPSG::1618")
- PROJJSON strings (find the jsonschema at proj.org)
- compound CRS made from two object names separated with " + " (e.g. "WGS 84 + EGM96 height")
