Good afternoon all,

NOAA’s National Geodetic Survey encourages anyone with survey-grade Global
Positioning System (GPS) receivers or GPS-enabled phones and hand held
devices to help collect GPS on Bench Marks.  This webinar will provide
guidance to collect GPS observations at any time, including during National
Surveyors Week (March 15–21, 2015). Joining the 2015 effort will help raise
awareness about professional surveying while improving the National Spatial
Reference System (NSRS).

This webinar will cover a variety of topics to help you participate (see
below). If you cannot attend the webinar live, we will record this webinar
for future viewing. You can also visit the GPS on BM web site
<http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/web/surveys/GPSonBM/> and download the 2015 flyer
<http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/corbin/class_description/NGS_GPS_BenchMarks_Campaign_2015.pdf>
for
more information.
