Our major products/services which will be affected by the new datums: ArcGIS suite of software products Projection Engine geodetic code base Our preparations to date include: Commenced development of dynamic datum functionality –  Time-based datum transformations  Point trajectory over time due to secular and episodic motion (i.e. crustal motion and earthquakes) Preparation

3. We are excited because... Expected advantages of the new datums for your organization, its products, or services Of the opportunity to modernize our geodetic models and tools Of the anticipated improved awareness and importance of geodesy in GIS We are concerned because... Expected challenges of the new datums for your organization, its products, or services Many users will misunderstand and misuse dynamic datum tools A substantial demand will arise for user education Advantages / Challenges

4. The tools, products, or services we need most from NGS are: Transformation tools on a modern code base Consistent grid formats for all NGS products The outreach we need most (from NGS or others): Technical documentation of the new datums and their use Simple user documentation of the new datums and their use Continue hosting bi-annual summits and monthly webinars Transition Tools / Outreach Needs
