As Of 6/ 6/ 12
New CORS in CA • CSRC requested about 130 of the CRTN backbone sites to become NGS CORS; some already were • Essentially all but a handful were added to NGS CORS network in 2 nd quarter, 2012 PBO Time Series Website Awesome http: //pbo. unavco. org/data/gps/plotviewer/P 334 /GPS
GEOID 12 A Development • Model is BASED on ellipsoid heights published from NA 2011 project • Proposed stations, different than for GEOID 09, for inclusion/exclusion were distributed to geodetic advisors for review & acceptance/rejection; eg, because location in subsidence area • OPUS-DB results are included • To improve future geoid modeling – Collect GPS data on leveled BMs which are likely to have been stable since they were leveled (1988)

NGS Datum Tags/Epoch Dates, Transforms CORS Passive (CA) ITRF 00 1997. 00 NAD 83 (1998) 1998. 50 ITRF 00 2002. 00 NAD 83 (CORS 96) 2002. 00 Multiple Epochs 2000. 35, 2004. 50 [NAD 83 (2007) 2002. 00—E] NAD 83 (2007) 2007. 00 IGS 08 2010. 00 NAD 83 (2011) 2010. 00 Transforms in development, mostly for batch files for mapping purposes (GIS): NAD 83 (2011) to NAD 83 (2007) to most recent significant adjustment (98) NAD 83 (1998) to NAD 83 (1992)*
HTDP, currently v. 3. 2. 3 • 4 th option: Interactively transform positions between reference frames and/or dates. • Epoch date format now includes deci-year • All NAD 83 realizations are treated the same • Datum tag/epoch usage Start with NAD 83(2011) 2010. 00 as constraints in adjustment, Utilize HTDP to translates to epoch desired, Produce NAD 83(2011) 2004. 50 coordinates, for example

DSWorld: mapping tool and more • Need to have Google Earth installed • Tools, Download PC Software, USER-CONTRIBUTED SOFTWARE, DSWorld • http: //www. ngs. noaa. gov/PC_PROD/PARTNERS/ index. shtml • FIRST: Tools, Update program • Enhancement enables you to distinguish VERTCON NAVD 88 from other(control) NAVD 88

Datums available in VDATUM
VDATUM tips • Must choose Height rather than Sounding • Must choose Ht for Source AND Target • Longitude shown before latitude • Must use – for longitude Improvements: Do not need to select geographic model region More streamlined interface for user Horizontal/geometric transformations also
The Changing Face of the Geodetic Advisor Program What are we not? Geodentists… • How is it changing? We are… Ø Baby boomers! Aging…Retiring Ø Fewer cooperative partners (states) can justify the financial agreement Ø Recommendation from some many years ago was for Fedgov to fully fund Advisor program Ø Advisors to be located at NOAA or Fed office
The Changing Face of the Geodetic Advisor Program, Geography Ø Provide equal service to non-coop states Ø REGIONALIZATION Ø 15 advisors total for 50 states, PR, Pacific islands Ø Regions being discussed in NGS Advisory Group Ross. Mackay@noaa. gov is Chair (SAB Chief) Ø Situated in a city with decent airport! Ø Proposal includes “State Coordinator” as POC Ø Transition in next 4 years, with attrition
