One year after the release of the renewed and updated https://spatialreference.org/ , it is now the first in Google when you search "epsg list" (at least in my incognito mode). 
Now also with the "Explorer" functionality to make things even easier.
PS: SpatialReference is maintained by the PROJ team

Tomorrow I am travelling to Crete to attend the #ESWC2024. Sunday, during the #GeoLD workshop, I will be presenting the #GloSIS web ontology. Also in the #GeoLD I am co-authoring a position paper making the case for a #SemanticWeb standard for #CoordinateSystems.
As A USGS Employee Working In Spatial Data: hehehehehehehehe

"The standard North American NAD83 coordinate system is misaligned from the actual Earth, off-centre by about 7 feet. Someone knows where I am, and I'm in the wrong place."

Now with the proper subtitles! (Google was not very good with the autogenerated ones).

Since I use Coordinate Reference Systems on a daily basis I have to search them for different reasons (usually because a customer is using the wrong one). I decided to develop a webpage to search them quickly, and get useful information. A few months later we moved it into the PROJ.org domain.
You have it at https://crs-explorer.proj.org/
Now there is not a single day I do not use it. It was worth it the investment.
