NGS Represents U.S. at Reference System Symposium

October 19, 2018

NGS gave presentations on modernizing the U.S. National Spatial Reference System and regional reference frames for North America at the Geocentric Reference System for the Americas Symposium in Aguascalientes, Mexico. Through interagency collaborations, the symposium helps to align scientific, political, and civil needs for numerous endeavors based on measuring changes in the Earth. Data sharing is critical for responding to natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis, and for maintaining and modernizing geodetic reference frames.
