Mapping Applications Center (MAC) - The Mapping Applications Center (MAC) promotes the standardization and the availability
of digital mapping data, methods, and products. MAC provides leadership in the areas of
advanced remote sensing data collection and analyzing, mapping, environment, and emergency
response issues. Using GIS and other digital cartographic tools, MAC creates maps, compiles
digital data from satellite images and aerial photographs, and develops new mapping methods
and applications.

National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program - The objective of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program is to create
geologic maps and digital geologic data bases to solve resource, land use,
hazards, and environmental problems and to develop geographic information
system (GIS)-based methods for assessing risks, for reducing economic losses
from natural hazards, and for making optimal land-use decisions. To build a
digital geologic-map data base for the Nation to guide public policy.

National Geodetic Survey - The National Geodetic Survey (NGS) develops and maintains the National Spatial
Reference System (NSRS) using advanced geodetic, photogrammetric, and
remote sensing techniques. NSRS is a consistent national coordinate system that
defines latitude, longitude, height, scale, gravity, and orientation throughout the
Nation, and how these values change with time.
