CoordinateReferenceSystem, Identifiable

public class GeocentricCRS
extends GeodeticCRS

A geocentric CoordinateReferenceSystem is a 3D cartesian coordinate system centered on the Earth center of mass.

Note that the Earth center of mass is not something easily identifiable, especially before the advent of space geodesy, which partially explains there are so many datums, and therefore, so many CoordinateReferenceSystems
