1 Modernization of the National Spatial Reference System Keeping Pace with Changes in Positioning Technology and User Expectations in a Dynamic World Wisconsin Society of Land Surveyors Institute Wisconsin Dells January 24, 2018 Dave Doyle NGS, Chief Geodetic Surveyor (Retired) base9geodesy@gmail.com
2 Can You Answer These Questions? 1) What, if any, are the most significant problems with both NAD 83 and NAVD 88? 2) What is the approximate positional difference between NAD 83 and the ITRF? 3) What organization is responsible for this standard? 4) What 4 geodetic measurement techniques are used to define the standard? 5) What is the biggest problem that keeps leveled height differences from being the same as those derived strictly by gravity observations? 6) Why do surveyors need to understand the epoch of coordinates and heights? 7) How fast and in what direction is Milwaukee moving as part of the North American tectonic plate per year? 8) What is the most current iteration of the World Geodetic System of 1984 (WGS 84) called? 9) How does IGS08 relate to ITRF08?
3 The National Geodetic Survey 10 year plan Mission, Vision and Strategy Official NGS policy as of Jan 31, 2013 Updates 2008 plan Modernized and Improve NSRS Attention to accuracy Attention to time-changes Improved products and services Fully vetted by NSPS/AAGS 2022 Targets: Replace NAD 83 and NAVD 88 Cm-accuracy access to all coordinates
4 Problems with NAD 83 and NAVD 88 NAD 83 is not as geocentric as it could be (approx. 1.5 m for CONUS). Surveyors don t see this Yet NAD 83 is not well defined with positional velocities NAVD 88 is realized by passive control (bench marks) most of which have not been releveled in years NAVD 88 does not easily account for local vertical velocities (subsidence/uplift) Post glacial isostatic readjustment (Forebulge collapse) Subsurface fluid/hydrocarbon extraction Sediment loading - Compaction Sea level rise
5 New Reference Frame Names NAD 83 becomes: North American Terrestrial Reference Frame (NATR2022) Caribbean Terrestrial Reference Frame (CTRF2022) Mariana Terrestrial Reference Frame (MTRF2022) Pacific Terrestrial Reference Frame (PTRF2022) NAVD 88 becomes: North American-Pacific Geopotential Datum of 2022 (NAPGD2022) Realized by GEOID2022

21 Why isn t NAVD 88 good enough anymore? Approximate level of global geoid mismatch known to exist in the NAVD 88 zero surface:
22 Passive Vertical Control Mark Problems -- Are rarely re-leveled for movement -- Disappear by the hundreds every year -- Are not funded for replacement -- Are not often readily located for GPS observations -- Don t exist in most of Alaska -- Determined by leveling from a single point allowing cross-country error build up.

26 NGS Plan for GEOID 19? Early January Produce a beta model with new data select Web Map End of February 2018 Engage surveyors to fill in GPS on BM gaps w/opus Share Solutions and/or OPUS Projects (Work w/regional Advisor John Ellingson) End of August 2018 Cut off acceptance of new GPS on BM data December 2018 Release BETA model Early 2019 Collect user feedback and resolve problems April 2019 Release final geoid model
27 NGS CORS Networked Data Some, but not all, CORS currently collect GLONASS data Can be provided to user by request NGS processing software PAGES/OPUS uses only GPS data NGS is currently reprocessing all CORS project REPRO new NAD 83 (2011) and IGS14 coordinates and updated velocities excepted soon (Spring 18?) NGS not likely to adjust existing passive GPS stations with respect to any CORS changes from REPRO New all viable GNSS processing software to replace PAGES being developed target 2022?

41 BETA GEOID MODEL COMPUTATION The gravity data from satellites, airborne, corrected surface data, and terrain predictions will be blended into a gravity field As regions are completed, beta preliminary geoid models will be created and released to the public for local testing Create a gravimetric geoid model that will be the basis of the new vertical datum 41
42 Why GRAV-D? A relatively small workforce can update the geoid as compared to the large workforce needed to re-level bench marks As the H=0 surface (W 0 ), the geoid will be tracked over time to keep the datum up to date. Also known as the equipotential surface W 0 = 62,636,856.0 m 2 /s 2 A 2 cm target accuracy anywhere that GNSS receivers can be used, kept up to date through monitoring CORS and the geoid, is better than the accuracy and accessibility of NAVD 88 today It is far cheaper than leveling The geoid can t be bulldozed out of usefulness The effect of subsidence/uplift upon the realization will be known (and accounted for) by monitoring CORS and monitoring the geoid
43 What is GRAV-D? GRAV-D will mean: As the H=0 surface, the geoid will be tracked over time to keep the datum up to date The reliance on passive marks will dwindle to: Secondary access to the datum Minimal NGS involvement Maintenance/checking in the hands of users Use at your own risk
44 How will I access the new vertical datum? Primary access (NGS mission) Users with geodetic quality GNSS receivers will continue to use OPUS suite of tools and other standard processing methods (e.g. RTNs, RTK, Static ) Ellipsoid heights computed, and then a gravimetric geoid applied to provide orthometric heights in the new datum No passive marks needed But, could be used to position a passive mark
45 How will I access the new vertical datum? Secondary access (Use at your own risk) Passive marks that have been tied to the new vertical datum NGS will provide a data sharing service (e.g. OPUS Shared Solutions) for these points, but their accuracy (due to either the quality of the survey or the age of the data) will not be a responsibility of NGS
46 How will I access the new vertical datum? NAVD 88 conversion to new datum A conversion will be provided between NAVD 88 and the new datum Only where recent GNSS ellipsoid heights exist to provide modern heights in the new reference system

48 BETA Geoid Model Computation The gravity data from satellites, airborne, corrected surface data, and terrain predictions will be blended into a gravity field As regions are completed, beta preliminary geoid models will be created and released to the public for local testing Create a gravimetric geoid model that will be the basis of the new vertical datum 48
