Scoping Study for New National Spatial Reference System Database

October 12, 2018

NGS recently completed a scoping study to investigate how to reprocess older survey observations to be compatible with the new National Spatial Reference System (NSRS) database.The study sampled projects that are currently part of the NGS Integrated Database, retrieved the original data, scanned field logs, and attempted to reprocess the data with OPUS-Projects, the latest extension of the NGS Online Positioning User Service (OPUS). The scoping study provided significant insights that NGS can use to develop its new dynamic database.
