Currently to find the map projections used in ArcGIS Online is really unclear.  For a feature layer it is of less importance as they can be transformed, however tile layers can only be displayed on basemap in the correct projection.  Also changing a basemap changes the projection.  Neither the layer or the basemap show clearly what projection they are in.  It would be really beneficial to simply display this in:

  • the item details page
  • on a basemap in the list of basemaps so you know what you are going to get
  • In the corner of a Map in MapViewer so you know what projection you are looking at

Ideally this would be in the EPSG code and the ESRI naming.
