Nationwide Differential GPS (NDGPS) program notice
The Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Research and Innovative Technology Administration (RITA) recently published a notice in the Federal Register assessing the current user requirements for the inland (terrestrial) component of the Nationwide Differential GPS (NDGPS) system. This assessment is in preparation for making a recommendation to the National Space-Based Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) Executive Committee on the need to continue to operate inland NDGPS, and to make a decision on funding the NDGPS. If no transportation requirements or other federal user requirements are identified as a result of the needs assessment, and if there are no other Federal or other funding sources willing to sponsor or partner in sponsoring NDGPS, DOT will develop a decommissioning plan for NDGPS. To keep on track for a decision by the National Space-Based Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) Executive Committee, comments are due by October 1, 2007. Download the notice.
