Where to find more Coordinate Systems for Download?

Question

Essentially, I am lacking a number of coordinate systems necessary for multiple data sets that I am working with. I was wondering if there might be any library or archive online through which you can download more projections and coordinate systems?

I couldn't find any with Esri.

I have Arcmap 2.10.2.2 (something like that).coordinate systems data‌

Any help or suggestions are appreciated!

There are an infinite number of coordinate systems that could be added, but only in the context of a finite number of known projections. Only Esri can add to the projection list (at least, if you wanted to deproject from it or project to it), but you could create a new CS string based on a known projection with alternate distance units or a custom prime meridian.

Each new release of ArcGIS has a Projection Engine update, so the easiest way to increase the probability of your coordsys being supported is to make sure you're using a recent build of ArcGIS

If you have EPSG well-known IDs for the coordinate systems--like 4326 = WGS84--you can type them into the search box.

If you have a list, you could post or email me and I can tell if they're available under a different name or in a later release.
