I have four files that I am working on. I have to change the projection parameters for them. However, there are two that are not in here. Can anyone help me find or, help me search so that I can find them. One of them is Projected, State Plane, Units Feet (US Survey), Zone Kentucky South, Datum 1983 NAD1983 (US Feet). The other one is Projected, State Plane, Datum 1983 (US Feet), Units Feet (US Survey), Zone Kentucky Single Zone FIPS.

I found them earlier, but I did not save it and I have spent hours trying to find it. Maybe I am missing something. Thanks for your help.

Try to find the EPSG Code. For the first it is 26980 I think. With that it's easily found in ArcGIS ...

Second one seems like the one in the screengrab:

More information on the FIPS of Kentucky in the attachment!

Good luck!
