[gpl_list] FW: GPSonBM Extended through September 2023

Mon Oct 10 12:40:50 PDT 2022

Hi All,

I wanted to share this recent announcement from the NGS about the GPS on BenchMarks project that is critical to the datum/coordinate system modernization effort we discussed at the last joint TAC/GPL meeting.  The NGS is relying on the GPS on BenchMarks project to provide the data for building the transformation models between NAD83 and the upcoming NATRF2022. The project has been going for several years but submissions have slowed so the NGS has just extended the deadline until September of 2023. Oregon needs more GPS on BenchMarks observations to ensure robust datum transformation models are available when the new coordinate systems get adopted. Ideal support of the GPS on BenchMarks project is providing survey-grade observations through the NGS Online Positioning User Service (OPUS) but performing mark recoveries is also very helpful.

Best,

Data submitted before the doors are closed will be considered for use in the 2020.00 Reference Epoch Coordinate (REC) adjustments. Data that passes through the adjustment quality-control process will be used to assign REC coordinates on marks in the Modernized NSRS. Marks with valid coordinates in both NAVD 88 and NAPDG2022 will be used to create the transformation grids that will be released with the modernized system.

Once released, the transformation grids will remain static and the points used will serve as the definitional points in the NAVD88-NAPGD2022 transformation. New GPSonBM observations submitted to NGS after September 2023 will have RECs and Survey Epoch Coordinates (SECs) computed in the new frames, however they will not be added into the set of points that define the transformations.

Here's a shout-out to partners in Alabama who have been consistently filling in data gaps across their state this year. In fact, while the numbers may be down for now, the interest levels and overall GPSonBM chatter seems to be growing. Now that the future of NSRS Modernization is coming into clearer focus, word is getting around that participating in GPSonBM is one very important way that the geospatial community can prepare now to take full advantage of the benefits of the Modernized System when it is released.

The good news is that we are not concerned about this slow down (yet) because we are banking on the idea that people are starting to plan to collect and submit RTK/RTN data through beta OPUS Projects 5 this year. More on that below...
