Revolution in Earth Measurement Traditional Surveying uses benchmarks as reference points Global Positioning uses fixed GPS receivers as reference points (Continuously Operating Reference System, CORS) Some images and slides from Michael Dennis, National Geodetic Survey and Lewis Lapine, South Carolina Geodetic Survey

Differential GPS Differential GPS uses the time sequence of observed errors at fixed locations to adjust simultaneous measurements at mobile receivers A location measurement accurate to 1 cm horizontally and 2cm vertically is now possible in 3 minutes with a mobile receiver More accurate measurements if the instrument is left in place longer

{Latitude (  ), Longitude ( ), Elevation (z)} Survey Benchmark This leads to adjustments in locations of the national network of survey benchmarks

Adjustments of the NAD83 Datum Slightly different ( , ) for benchmarks Continuously Operating Reference System Canadian Spatial Reference System National Spatial Reference System High Accuracy Reference Network

THE GEOID AND TWO ELLIPSOIDS GRS80-WGS84 (NAD83) CLARKE 1866 (NAD27) GEOID Earth Mass Center Approximately 236 meters

WGS 84 and NAD 83 International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF) includes updates to WGS- 84 (~ 2 cm) North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83) (Civilian Datum of US) Earth Mass Center 2.2 m (3-D) dX,dY,dZ GEOID World Geodetic System of 1984 (WGS 84) is reference frame for Global Positioning Systems

Slide: Lewis Lapine High Accuracy Reference Network Continuously Operating Reference System

Adjustment using Triangulation of Reference Locations of Various Accuracies

Tectonic Motions From Sella et al., 2002 This has to take Tectonic Motions into account

HORIZONTAL TECTONIC MOTIONS Pacific Plate North American Plate Motion in cm/year When is California not in North America … …. when its on the Pacific Plate!

What’s in a name? NAD 83(2011) epoch – “2011” is datum tag  year adjustment complete – “ ” is “epoch date” (January 1, 2010) Date associated with coordinates of control station – Frame fixed to North American tectonic plate Includes California, Alaska, Puerto Rico, and US Virgin Islands NAD 83(PA11) epoch – Frame fixed to Pacific tectonic plate (Hawaii and American Samoa) NAD 83(MA11) epoch – Frame fixed to Mariana tectonic plate (Guam and CNMI) That which we call a datum By any other name would smell as sweet… The latest datum adjustments are referenced to location on a particular tectonic plate
