Coordinate Reference System (CRS) is a mapping of how coordinates refer to
locations on Earth.

For `geometry` type, the CRS does not affect geometric calculations, which

The default CRS `OGC:CRS84` means that the geospatial features must be stored
in the order of longitude/latitude based on the WGS84 datum.
