The North American-Pacific Geopotential Datum of 2022 (NAPGD2022) is a new geodetic datum set to be produced by the U.S. National Geodetic Survey in 2024–2025 to improve the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS).
A spatial reference system (SRS) or coordinate reference system (CRS) is a framework used to precisely measure locations on the surface of Earth as coordinates. It is thus the application of the abstract mathematics of coordinate systems and analytic geometry to geographic space.
To improve the National Spatial Reference System, NAD 83, along with North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88), are set to be replaced with a new geometric reference frame and geopotential datum based on global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), such as the Global Positioning System (GPS), and new gravimetric geoid model, potentially in ...
The ITRS defines a geocentric system of coordinates using the SI system of measurement. An International Terrestrial Reference Frame ( ITRF) is a realization of the ITRS. Its origin is at the center of mass of the whole earth including the oceans and atmosphere. New ITRF solutions are produced every few years, using the latest mathematical and ...
t. e. A projected coordinate system – also called a projected coordinate reference system, planar coordinate system, or grid reference system – is a type of spatial reference system that represents locations on Earth using Cartesian coordinates ( x, y) on a planar surface created by a particular map projection.

U.S. National Geodetic Survey. The National Geodetic Survey ( NGS) is a United States federal agency based in Washington, D.C. that defines and manages a national coordinate system, providing the foundation for transportation and communication, mapping and charting, and a large number of science and engineering applications.
To improve the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS), the National Geodetic Service will replace the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83) and the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88) with a new geometric reference frame and geopotential datum in 2025.
The NGS expects to release the new spatial reference system and new zones in 2025. As with earlier systems, the name of the new system, State Plane Coordinate System of 2022, indicates a year earlier than the actual year of release. See also.
