Geospatial Summit Focuses on Progress, Stakeholders' Needs

NGS hosted the 2019 Geospatial Summit in Silver Spring, Maryland. Summit participants received progress updates on the planned modernization of the National Spatial Reference System. NGS plans to replace the North American Datum of 1983 and the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 - the official reference frames for position and height - in 2022. NGS also solicited requirements, comments, and concerns from its stakeholders across the federal, public, and private sectors.
