Inventory of Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) in the northern Gulf of Mexico (2016) (NCEI Accession 0159588)

This dataset contains information about continuously operating reference stations (CORS) and the networks that they belong to throughout the Gulf of Mexico region, compiled from responses by network operators. Station information includes the 4-character site ID, location, type of equipment, specifics on communication, and redundancy on power and communication of the station. Network information includes ownership and maintenance of the stations, if any stations are geodetically tied or co-located with a water level observing station, where the data is stored, future expansion or reduction plans, and what the current needs and gaps an operator faces with the network. Stations are continuously being installed, updated and un-installed so this dataset is only a completed snapshot of stations in 2016. This dataset should not be used as a status map of stations in a local area, if status is needed on a specific location, sensor map URLs for each of the networks can be found in the general question answers.本数据集收录了墨西哥湾全域持续运行参考站（Continuously Operating Reference Stations，CORS）及其所属网络的相关信息，数据由各网络运营方报送后汇总编制而成。站点信息包含4位字符的站点标识、地理位置、设备类型、通信细节，以及站点的电力与通信冗余配置情况。 网络信息涵盖站点的所有权与运维主体、是否存在与水位观测站进行大地测量联测或共址的站点、数据存储位置、未来扩容或缩减计划，以及运营方当前在该网络运营中面临的需求与缺口。 由于站点始终处于安装、更新与撤装的动态流程中，本数据集仅为2016年的站点完整快照。 本数据集不可作为本地区域的站点状态地图使用；若需获取特定位置的站点状态信息，可在通用问答板块中查询各网络对应的传感器地图URL。
