Changes Afoot After 2022: State Plane and the Death of the U.S. Survey Foot
Presenter: Michael Dennis, PhD, PE, PLS, Geodesist, Observations and Analysis Division, NGS
The clock is ticking. The U.S. survey foot is scheduled for deprecation on December 31, 2022, but the State Plane Coordinate System of 2022 (SPCS2022) will not be released until 2025, along with the rest of the modernized National Spatial Reference System. This webinar gives an update on the status of SPCS2022, when it will be finalized, and the role of the U.S. survey foot after 2022.

GeMS Validation Survey
Presenter: Kevin Ahlgren, Geodesist, Observations and Analysis Division, NGS
This presentation will provide an overview of a field campaign that was undertaken by NGS in the Fall of 2021 to support the Geoid Monitoring Service and a time-dependent geoid model. The campaign included static GNSS, relative gravity, and deflection of the vertical techniques on 50 stations in Alaska.

OPUS User Forum: Working with Real-Time Kinematic Data in OPUS-Projects 5
NGS is now providing tools that support the use of real-time kinematic (RTK) data in control survey projects. NGS has released Beta OPUS Projects 5 where users can upload RTK vectors in a newly defined standard file exchange format called GVX. A demonstration will be given on how to set up an RTK rover, export the data to GVX format, and upload the GVX file to OPUS Projects 5 for inclusion in a survey network for least squares adjustment. Additional discussion will be given on the recommended RTK field practices, how to prepare an RTK survey on bench marks for publication at NGS, and how to use quality control and adjustment tools inside of OPUS Projects 5.
The remainder of the time will be open for a question and answer period on any OPUS topic. If you would like to submit a question(s) beforehand, please email it to ngs.training@noaa.gov, with the subject line, “OPUS User Forum”.

Geodetic Astronomy at NGS: Past and Present
Presenter: Ryan Hardy, Geodesist, Geosciences Research Division, NGS
Astronomy has played a central role in geodesy, whether through measuring Earth’s shape or precisely orienting geodetic networks. This webinar introduces the basic concepts of geodetic astronomy. It overviews the methods and practices of the Coast & Geodetic Survey throughout the 19th and 20th century and the role geodetic astronomy played in the development of modern geodetic systems. It closes with the story of modern geodetic astronomy at NGS with the Geoid Slope Validation Surveys and the development of the Total Station Astrogeodetic Control System (TSACS).
