//! Presently only a small subset of EPSG datums are supported. These are hardcoded here or,
//! alternatively, the EPSG code is mapped to the OSSIM/Geotrans code and ossimDatumFactory is
//! used to produce the final datum. 
//! 
//! TO DO:
//! Eventually we should have a disk-file based database lookup of datums with associated parameters
//! similar to the EPSG projection factory and database.
