What SRCW Means to You
| Control-point correction, as part of the National Geodetic Survey's Height Modernization program, has far reaching effects
into many industries within Washington State. |
Accurate LIDAR data depends on accurate reference points on the ground to which the aircraft's GPS navigation system can be referenced. |
The Global Positioning System, used in navigation equipment, cell phones, and important to emergency services, requires precise and accurate ground observations to be most useful. |
Using GPS positioning and improving the vertical reference points around ports helps us find where the piers and channel bottoms are in relation to water levels and surrounding land. |

Washigton State NGS Advisor, Gary Perasso, retires.
SRCW-WSRN-WSDOT-DNR and the City of Seattle met with NGS on March 26th to establish a plan on how to
contract and fund for the vacant advisor position. When the contract and funding issues are resolved, there will be an
open competitive announcement when recruiting for the position, hopefully before the end of 2008.
