This suite of NOAA services supports safe and efficient navigation, the blue economy, resilient coasts and communities, and the nationwide positioning information infrastructure to support America’s climate needs and commerce. Specifically, the HSRP will consider: • National Ocean Service programs’ recent activities such as the update to the National Spatial Reference System, datums, national ocean and coastal mapping goals and the Standard Ocean Mapping Protocol, hydrographic surveying, nautical charting, uncrewed systems, coastal remote sensing and bathymetric lidar, photogrammetry, positioning, sea level rise and water levels in support of ‘‘seamless data.’’ • The status of NOAA’s navigation services in the context of recent legislation (e.g., the National Defense Authorization Act, Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and Inflation Reduction Act). • Measuring, monitoring, and mitigating flooding and sea level change and the contribution of NOAA’s critical foundational geospatial data to projects. • NOAA navigation data, products, and services that enable further economic growth and impact safe navigation. • Other topics related to NOAA programs and activities may be discussed, such as bathymetric and coastal/ocean modeling, tide and current observations, contributions to resilience and coastal data and information systems to support planning for climate change in ports and coastal communities, flooding, inundation, contributions to the Blue Economy, Physical Oceanographic RealTime System (PORTS®) sensor enhancements and expansion, Precision Marine Navigation, the transition from raster paper charts to Electronic Navigational Charts, geodetic observations, gravity modeling, data stewardship, education and training to sustain the workforce necessary for NOAA navigation services missions, and the scientific mapping and technology research projects tied to the cooperative agreements between NOAA and other partners.
