Abstract: | |
The National Spatial Reference System (NSRS), maintained by the National Geodetic Survey (NGS), is a consistent National coordinate system that defines latitude, longitude, elevation, scale, gravity, and orientation throughout the Nation, and how these values change with time.
There are over 800,000 control survey points in the U.S. Approximately 1300 of these, the Federal Base Network (FBN) and Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) form the highest accuracy core of the system.
The NOS MapFinder Preview Demonstration contains a complete index and individual data sheets for all FBN and CORS points. Thousands of additional control survey points will be added in subsequent releases.
