Surveyors, GIS users, engineers, scientists, and the public at large that collect GPS data can use CORS data to improve the precision of their positions. CORS enhanced post-processed coordinates approach a few centimeters relative to the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS), both horizontally and vertically. The CORS network is a multi-purpose cooperative endeavor involving government, academic, and private organizations. The sites are independently owned and operated. Each agency shares their data with NGS, and NGS in turn analyzes and distributes the data free of charge. purpose: The CORS data set enables users to attain centimeter-level positioning for points of interest and can be used to measure crustal motion, moisture content for the lower atmosphere, and total electronic content in the upper atmosphere. NGS publishes coordinates for CORS in several reference frames. This includes the current global reference frame from the International GNSS Service (IGS), and with respect to the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS) realizations of the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83) as defined by NGS. credit: NGS coordinates a network of CORS stations from approximately 200 organizations such as federal, state, and local governments, academia, the private sector, and international groups. status: (MD_ProgressCode) ongoing pointOfContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Anchor: ROR ID NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information contactInfo: (CI_Contact) address: (CI_Address) electronicMailAddress: ncei.info@noaa.gov onlineResource: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact name: NCEI Contact Information description: Information for contacts at NCEI. function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) information role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact pointOfContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Francine Coloma contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: (303) 497-3692 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: 325 Broadway St city: Boulder administrativeArea: CO postalCode: 80027 country: USA electronicMailAddress: ngs.cors@noaa.gov hoursOfService: 9:00 - 4:00 Mountain role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) daily graphicOverview: (MD_BrowseGraphic) fileName: https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/image/cors_main765x320.jpg fileDescription: NCEI Archive of NGS CORS data descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Geodetics keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Geodetics > Coordinate Reference Systems keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Geodetics > Coordinate Reference Systems > Country/Regional Coordinate Reference System keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Geodetics > Coordinate Reference Systems > Global Coordinate Reference System keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Geodetics > Ellipsoid Characteristics keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Geodetics > Geoid Characteristics keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Geodetics > Control Surveys keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Geodetics > Crustal Motion keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Geomorphic Landforms/Processes keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Solid Earth > Gravity/Gravitational Field type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords date: (CI_Date) date: 2024 dateType: (CI_DateTypeCode) revision edition: 19 citedResponsibleParty: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) contactInfo: (CI_Contact) onlineResource: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords name: GCMD Keyword Forum Page description: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2024.

Automated routines at NCEI pull data staged by NGS at regular intervals. result: (unknown) lineage: (LI_Lineage) statement: GNSS observational data from the CORS network are ingested, translated, and processed by NGS and are posted to the NGS online servers as hourly or daily files, and ultimately retained as daily files in RINEX format. After 30 days, data in the at-sampling rate is copied to the NCEI archive, and NGS online holdings are then decimated to a 30-second sampling rate. Special use case: Certain groups such as the Federal Aviation Administration, make GNSS data available in binary format to NGS. These data are used as input to algorithms for internal NOAA models such as the US-Total Electron Content product. The Data Center, not NGS, has decided to archive the raw data from these stations as a daily tar file consisting of hourly binary files processStep: (LE_ProcessStep) description: INGEST: NGS has automated daily routines that harvests daily observational files in either binary or RINEX format at the original sampling rate, the daily broadcast ephemeris files, orbit files, and any corresponding meteorological files. For the special case use of FAA and USCG streaming data that are used as input to NOAA models, the streaming feed is harvested to a binary, incrementally-built hourly file. dateTime: DateTime: 1994-02-01T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: NOAA National Geodetic Survey role: (CI_RoleCode) processor processStep: (LE_ProcessStep) description: PROCESSING: Data ingested by NGS are processed into RINEX format and made available online in either an hourly or daily cadence. Aside from positioning, processing includes the insertion of NGS headers, quality checks, and the production of quality control files (teqc summary files). Other scheduled routines retrieve higher level orbit files as they are made available. dateTime: DateTime: 1994-02-01T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: NOAA National Geodetic Survey role: (CI_RoleCode) processor processStep: (LE_ProcessStep) description: DISTRIBUTION: NGS makes hourly and daily files available online. For the special case of binary FAA and USCG data, NGS pushes these files to the Data Center every 5 minutes. The Data Center stages the data for internal NOAA groups, who harvests the data at a predetermined sub-hourly period as input to their algorithms. The completed binary hourly file at the Data Center is kept locally. At the end of the day, a daily tar file consisting of the hourly data are created and staged for archive. dateTime: DateTime: 1994-02-01T00:00:00 processor: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: NOAA National Geodetic Survey role: (CI_RoleCode) processor processStep: (LE_ProcessStep) description: RETENTION: NGS retains the data at the original at-sampling rate for 30 days.
