The Utah Reference Network (TURN) is a high-precision global navigation satellite system (GNSS) Continuously Operating
Reference System (CORS) providing real-time corrections and data for post processing. Our network consists of
permanently located GPS receivers installed across Utah and portions of Idaho, Wyoming, and southern Nevada that
generate real-time, high-accuracy GPS positioning. These receivers send their data via the Networked Transport of RTCM
via Internet Protocol (NTRIP) to a central system that analyzes the input to adjust and correct the data to provide
the most accurate locations, usually down to centimeter level. Our network uses the Trimble Pivot VRS Platform.

Every second counts in an emergency. Accurate and precise GIS data is the backbone for a swift and effective 911
response. That is where the Utah Geospatial Resource Center (UGRC) comes in.
Every second counts in an emergency. Accurate and precise location data is crucial for a swift and effective 911

UGRC empowers Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) by providing access to a comprehensive suite of accurate and
up-to-date geospatial data. This includes vital infrastructure layers such as service area boundaries and civic
location data. With this data, PSAPs can pinpoint caller location, ensuring emergency responders are dispatched to
the appropriate scene.

Simply displaying data on a map is an excellent first step to GIS integration. Do you have a list of street
addresses associated with the services or resources your agency or organization provides? Start by geocoding them,
plotting them as points on a map, then compare, contrast and analyze with other data layers in the SGID to learn
more and generate questions.
