\title{ Get or set a coordinate reference system (projection) }
\description{
Get or set the coordinate reference system (CRS) of a Raster* object.
}
\usage{
\S4method{crs}{ANY}(x, asText=FALSE, ...)
\S4method{wkt}{Raster}(obj)
crs(x, ...) <- value
projection(x, asText=TRUE)
projection(x) <- value
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{Raster* or Spatial object }
\item{obj}{Raster*, Spatial, or CRS object }
\item{asText}{logical. If \code{TRUE}, the projection is returned as text. Otherwise a \code{\link[sp]{CRS-class}} object is returned}
\item{...}{additional arguments. None implemented}
\item{value}{\code{CRS} object or a character string describing a projection and datum in the PROJ.4 format }
}
\value{
Raster*, Spatial*, or character object
}
\note{
\code{crs} replaces earlier function \code{projection}.
For compatibility with \code{sp} you can use \code{proj4string} instead of \code{crs}.
\code{wkt} returns the "well-known-text" representation of the crs.

\seealso{ \code{\link[raster]{projectRaster}, \link[sp]{spTransform}}}
\details{ projections are done by with the PROJ library }

r <- raster()

w <- wkt(r)
