Provides the SQL script files for creating a local EPSG database when first needed. The database is maintained by the OGP Surveying & Positioning Committee and reproduced in this module with identical content.
This module is used only for creating a local copy of the database. It is not needed for using the EPSG database once created - the core referencing module alone is sufficient. However having this module unconditionally in the classpath - in case the local database needs to be created - doesn't hurt.
While the primary purpose of this module is to create the local database when first needed, it can also be used for populating an external database, for example on a server running PostgreSQL. This is done by running the following from the command line:
java -jar geotk-epsg create <URL to the database> <user> <password>
In order to get the referencing module to use that database, a DataSource.properties file must be presents in the Geotoolkit configuration directory with the following content:
# # Connection parameters to the EPSG database. # URL = <URL to the database> user = <user> password = <password>
