Maybe QGIS should rather have an option to write an .aux.xml file as an alternative for .prj
The .prj system is sometimes used by ESRI and it comes originally from arc/info https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/aaigrid.html. As far as I know GDAL supports .prj only with the AAIGrid and BT drivers https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/bt.html but the aux.xml (PAM) file is supported by all drivers. And I believe that ESRI supports .aux.xml too.
Not critical and not sure if it's appropriate, but there is a kind of inconsistency:
With the QGIS GDAL tool "Extract projection"
it's possible to create a
.prj
file for a raster.However, when opening such raster with the accompanying files
.tfw
and.prj
, the CRS is not detected.Expected behavior and actual behavior.
gdalinfo
shows CRS information if there's an accompanying .prj , but it doesn't take .prj into account.Steps to reproduce the problem.
