• Abstract:
  The Center for GeoInformatics at Louisiana State University conducted a three-part study addressing accurate, ; precise, and consistent positional control for the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development. ; First, this study focused on Departmental standards of practice when utilizing Global Navigational Satellite ; Systems technology for mapping-grade applications. Second, the recent enhancements to the nationwide ; horizontal and vertical spatial reference framework (i.e., datums) is summarized in order to support consistent ; and accurate access to the National Spatial Reference System. Third, the Center provides quality control ; information to the Pavement Management System section against which Moving Vehicle Rapid Mapping data ; may be compared and assessed.
