GEOID09, New Datums, Visualizing Geodetic Control, plus some other stuff Marti Ikehara California Geodetic Advisor CLSA Los Angeles Chapter, April 2010 ftp://ftp.ngs.noaa.gov/pub/marti
GEOID09 published in Sept 09 • In California, GEOID03 considered 567 bench marks with GPS data (ellipsoid heights), and kept 549 • In GEOID09, there were 833 considered; 738 were included, a 36% increase from Geoid03
GEOID09 compared to GEOID03 09: teal, good; yellow: State advisor-rejected; red: analysis-rejected 03 (underlying dots): dk blue, kept; orange: rejected
From Helmer’s article in Winter 09/10 issue of California Surveyor
738 BMs .234, .132 | .000,.022 CALIFORNIA .044 m, 95% confidence
Rationale for new vertical datum • Rather than ‘force’ GNSS data to fit a datum that was defined by a completely different system of measurement and has a bias relative to our understanding of the gravity field, we plan to define the new vertical datum by: --utilizing the ellipsoid height --AND a geoid model based on real gravity measurements on a national scale—airborne gravimeters and some ground-collected data --with updates when changing conditions warrant

Using NGS DSWORLD software and Google Earth to get any vintage geodetic data from NGSIDB Start by downloading “Google earth” at: http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html Click here
Open the NGS main page atwww.ngs.noaa.gov Mouse-over the “TOOLS” button Click on “DOWNLOAD PC SOFTWARE”
Clickonthe link: “UserContributedSoftwareisalsoavailable…..” Click here
Next, click on the DSWORLD (Version *.**) link. A “file download” window will appear. Choose to save the file where you can easily find it. It will be a zip file, so you will need to unzip it and then double click on the setup.exe file. That will install the program for you. For additional information or assistance, please contact your NGS State Geodetic Advisor
CRTN Backbone Royal blue: Up (more than B.b.) Red: Down (at that moment) Lavender: PBO’s Cascadia Turquoise: Proposed, need funding partners
Elements of CRTNCA Real Time Network • Currently, single base positioning available free • How do you get it? Contact Yehuda Bock, CSRC • Goal: RT data streaming to partners • Partners could be public agencies, private providers of RTN service • Funds needed to establish telemetry at 78 sites • Operational partners: MWD, USGS, SOPAC, Counties: LA, Orange, SD, and UNAVCO PBO
New PublicationOnline pubs, quick link in Left columnlook under GPS Category, 5th last bullet Living Document; not a formal publication
NGS and RTNs • Draft RTN Guidelines indicate that RTN providers should incorporate some CORS (10%, minimum of 3) into their network • Doing so will enable connection with the NSRS or CSRS in the case of CRTN, and providers could give PRC coordinates not just corrections • NGS may ‘certify’ RTN providers, after reviewing practices, adjustment, etc • NGS long-term goal is to have national backbone of RT CORS that we operate: look for documents about “OnCORS”
