Remarks

Note that in most SPHEROID parameters of the WKT format contained in a ".prj" projection file, the flattening is expressed as 1/f. For example, in SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101] 1/f = 298.257222101. 6378137.0 is the EquatorialRadius

See remarks on EccentricitySquared for explanation on how to convert "f" to "E^2"
