Hi Paulo,
geotiff keyword from read_tiff will give me projection information in
structure of GeoTiff like:

MODELPIXELSCALETAG
DOUBLE Array[3]
MODELTIEPOINTTAG
DOUBLE Array[6, 1]
GTMODELTYPEGEOKEY
INT 1
GTRASTERTYPEGEOKEY
INT 1
GEOGLINEARUNITSGEOKEY
INT 9001
GEOGANGULARUNITSGEOKEY
INT 9102
PROJECTEDCSTYPEGEOKEY
INT 26713

But, I want something more sensible for users to read like:

PCS: 'NAD83 / Massachusetts Mainland'
Projection: 'SPCS83 Massachusetts Mainland zone (m)'
MapSys: 'STATE_PLANE_83'
Zone: 2001
CTProjection: 'CT_LambertConfConic_2SP'
ProjParm: [7x1 double]
ProjParmId: {7x1 cell}
GCS: 'NAD83'
Datum: 'North American Datum 1983'
Ellipsoid: 'GRS 1980'
