Attention CORS users:
The National Geodetic Survey's CORS data is now available for ordering from the CLASS archive. Older data are currently in the process of being migrated from the NGDC archive to CLASS. While every effort is made to retain data in the original at-sampling rate, there may be cases where only the 30-second decimated rate data exists. For more details select 'Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS)' from the product drop down menu and click on Go.
