These are the PCS (Projected Coordinate System) codes used by GeoTIFF.
The GEOREG.MBX tool uses them when registering an image by matching the
codes in the .PRJ file.

They are never required for a custom coordinate system. I found them
documented at http://www.remotesensing.org/geotiff/spec/geotiffhome.html
