Datums & Coordinate Systems GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 Revenge of the Shift Joel. After Post Field 1 Export. This provides overview of Datums and Coordinate Systems. Setting the Stage NAD27 Datum National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Objective Identify different datums GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 Objective Identify different datums Identify different coordinate systems A quick overview of coordinate systems, datums and their relationship with the way you collect data using space-based technologies and align those data with other data in a GIS. Once we have learned there are differences it will be important in the following days to learn how to Identify what you got and Make it Match National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Setting The Stage GPS is rigid – collects one way GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 Setting The Stage GPS is rigid – collects one way GIS is flexible – designed to share #1 reason GPS data doesn’t line up in GIS - coordinate system/datum mismatch How do we fix it? – Educate Think about it. GPS really is amazing. You can spend less than a $100 and take one of these gizmos outside and within moments get coordinates of astounding accuracy (you can also spend $25,000 and get coordinates that are no better, at least for a stand-alone unit). But realize there is a LOT going on in the background in order to get those final coordinates. GPS is high tech. And high tech is complicated. That’s the way it is. And that’s really what this presentation is all about. GPS for consumer use is one thing. But GPS used to provide professional services is entirely something else. It is the responsibility of the professional to understand the technology he or she is using to provide professional services. GIS is all about sharing information ideally across the continent. Its an ideal digital melting pot and doesn’t care about what you use. You should care though when you are using submeter GPS. This equipment found in this class is not recreational in nature, but designed to submit data of high quality into a GIS for archiving. Handling data in the submeter range takes good solid techniques. This is a difficult topic and often the number one reason why maps don’t line up. There’s no pill you can take to learn this stuff, you just have to slog your way through it. National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Coordinate Systems Latitude and Longitude GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 Coordinate Systems Latitude and Longitude Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) The two prominent location referencing systems used to make maps. These are latitude/longitude (Lat/long) and Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM). National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Lat / Long Coordinate System Latitude Parallels of latitude 0° latitude north latitude south 90°N equator

Lat / Long Coordinate System Longitude Grenwich, England West Longitude Meridians of longitude 0° longitude Prime Meridian East longitude

UTM Coordinate Systems GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 UTM Coordinate Systems A plane coordinate system to relate the coordinates of points on earth’s curved surface with the coordinates of the same points on a plane or flat surface This slide needs work. Allows projection of a spherical surface onto a flat surface National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

UTM Zones in North America GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 174 180 168 162 156 150 144 138 132 126 120 114 108 102 96 90 78 72 54 60 66 84 48 Seque, Because both lat/long and UTM have their axis at an abstract location in space, both are relative to the shape of the Earth, which is represented in a datum. In mapping, datums represent the point or line of reference that is used as a starting location for measurement. As our understanding of the shape of the Earth has changed, the frame of reference (i.e. datum) for mapping has changed, and the “starting point” from which we measure has changed as well. National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

“Figure” of the Earth Best-fit ellipsoid (e.g., GRS-80, WGS-84) GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 “Figure” of the Earth Best-fit ellipsoid (e.g., GRS-80, WGS-84) The Figure of the earth: The globe is kinda squished, Its lumpy and irregular in shape but we have to assign something simple to define this squished shape. We call this an ellipsoid. Both LAT/Long and UTM are relative to the shape of the Earth, which is represented by a datum. National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Datum and Ellipsoids Datum - represented by ellipsoid Reference ellipsoid examples: Clarke 1866 GRS 80 WGS 84

Common Geographic Datums GPS for Ologists Common Geographic Datums Summer 2005 NAD27 NAD83 WGS84 ITRF00 In the US, GIS personnel are most likely to encounter three horizontal reference map Datums NAD27 NAD83 WGS84 ITRF00 – Global geodetic system used mainly in scientific studies. National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

NAD27: Clarke 1866 ellipsoid origin in Kansas GPS for Ologists NAD27: Clarke 1866 ellipsoid origin in Kansas Summer 2005 Datum Origin on Surface of Earth As I see it, NAD27’s biggest problem is that the datum origin is on the surface of the earth and it’s second biggest problem is that the Clark 1866 ellipsoid just doesn’t work as you leave the vicinity of Meades Ranch. Be careful, the diagram looks like you’re saying NAD27 is ECEF. Ellipsoid Model based on less precise surveys National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

NAD27: Leaving Behind Invented Space Travel GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 NAD27: Leaving Behind Invented Space Travel Increasing accuracy of surveys Shift from optical surveys to a mathematical model of the Earths shape The result is a specific point on the landscape can take on multiple meanings So over time, as we invented space travel, increased accuracy of surveying the science of mapping our earth shifted from optical surveys to a mathematical model of the Earths shape. The result is that any specific point on the earth can take on multiple meanings. National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

GPS Datum: WGS 84 Origin is at the Earth’s center of mass (geocentric) GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 GPS Datum: WGS 84 Origin is at the Earth’s center of mass (geocentric) This is the datum used for the NAVSTAR GPS satellites National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

WGS84: WGS84 ellipsoid origin center of earth GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 WGS84: WGS84 ellipsoid origin center of earth The origins of the WGS84 and NAD83 ellipsoids are at the center of the earth’s mass, which makes them ideal for a GPS datum National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Datum Adjustments Known as Datum Adjustments or Epochs GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 Datum Adjustments Known as Datum Adjustments or Epochs WGS84 (G1150) – most current version “Original” NAD83 = NAD83 (1986) NAD83 (1992) NAD83 (2002) …… Most Current NAD83 NAD83 (CORS96) (Epoch 2003.00) Just when you thought all you had to learn was a Datum name like WGS84… It’s a bit more complicated. As a datum is more precicesly defined or datums become adjusted over time as we learn more about the center of the earths mass. Satellite, gravity measurements all enhance the level of precision that we can measure things. Datums therefore are adjusted or realized using the term epochs. These datum reference frames are noted by a year (1986) or (1992). Whats happened is that the most current realization of NAD83 and WGS84 differ by up to a meter. Errors can be introduced into a map by assuming these are the same National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Over Time Datums Have Grown Apart GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 Over Time Datums Have Grown Apart NAD83 NAD83 = WGS84 WGS84 ~4+ feet This slide works great. Shows the old and new (1986 what we knew then) and What we know now. Do Note: at an even deeper level is that NAD83 has kept up with WGS84 as well. It’s just that this slide is a bit misleading, that there is not a NAD83 next to the modern WGS84. It is,,,, its called NAD83(CONUS) CORS96. National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Differences between Datums GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 Differences between Datums NAD27 ≠ NAD83 (1986) 33 to 700 feet Many of you have seen these large differences between the older NAD27 and NAD83. Alaskan’s are often caught with seeing shifts exceed two football fields. NAD27 Datum National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Shift Happens - Redmond OR 2005 Example GPS for Ologists Shift Happens - Redmond OR 2005 Example Summer 2005 710 Feet Here is the shift in the GIS. GIS baselayers are in NAD83. When a person transfers GPS data using PFO to GIS without switching to NAD83, then this Northern Displacement occurs – 710 Feet. This causes confusion, delay and loss of confidence in Fire field and GIS staff. National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Differences between Datums GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 Differences between Datums WGS84 = ITRF00 about 2cm NAD83 (CORS96) ≠ WGS84 about 4.3 feet More subtle differences or error shifts can be seen here though when Errors can be introduced into a map by assuming these are the same For Arcata National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center

Reference Frames Differentially corrected GPS data are always in terms of the corrections source’s reference frame. In Arcata we are using CORS station data and therefore must apply the correct datum transform between the GPS data and your GIS

When Do Datums/Coordinate Systems Matter? GPS for Ologists Summer 2005 When Do Datums/Coordinate Systems Matter? PFO Map View Coordinate system Terrasync Coordinate System Export Utility Shape Export Coordinate System ArcGIS Catalog Define Projection ArcGIS Data Frame Properties – Coordinate System Tab If we had to break the Datum shift issue into two areas where it matters most, its in the Field and in the GIS. In the field when communicating between GPS users and when communicating or transferring data between GPS and paper maps. The classic example here is the dispatcher is in one datum and you, the user is in another datum. In the GIS, after the data is stored and transferred into a Geographic Information system like arcView. Projecting data on top of GIS data based in a different datum and/or coordinate system. The data is shifted relative to the base layers. This is a very common occurrence and can prove disastrous when the map is printed out the next day with the fire depicted on the wrong side of the road or the safety zone is in the wrong place. The GIST making the map never had the chance to visit the site, so confirmation of the data was impossible. National Park Service - Pacific Islands GIS Field Technical Support Center
