The National Geodetic Survey (NGS), an office of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), hosted a 2015 Geospatial Summit on April 13 and 14, 2015, to share updates and receive feedback on the planned 2022 release of new geodetic datums being developed to replace the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83) and the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). There were more than 220 in person attendees and over 125 webinar participants at this event.
The Presentations and webinar videos from the event are now available through the NGS 2015 Geospatial Summit Website: http://www.geodesy.noaa.gov/2015GeospatialSummit/
