What Is CORS? -- Continuously Operating Reference Stations
http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/CORS/

The National Geodetic Survey (NGS), an office of NOAA's National Ocean
Service, coordinates two networks of continuously operating reference
stations (CORS): the National CORS network and the Cooperative CORS
network. Each CORS site provides Global Positioning System (GPS)
carrier phase and code range measurements in support of 3-dimensional
positioning activities throughout the United States and its territories
(map).

Surveyors, GIS/LIS professionals, engineers, scientists, and others can
apply CORS data to position points at which GPS data have been
collected. The CORS system enables positioning accuracies that
approach a few centimeters relative to the National Spatial Reference
System, both horizontally and vertically.

The CORS system benefits from a multi-purpose cooperative endeavor
involving many government, academic, commercial and private
organizations. New sites are evaluated for inclusion according to
established criteria. See our newest sites and their coordinates.

That one has two Rs, and IMO only became 'annoying' when they quit
sounding even faintly Irish and started sounding like all the other
wannabe pop bands on the planet.

Actually it is one "r" and two "o"'s. How about the Irish dancing
thing, that became pretty damn annoying pretty damn quick.

Nope, 'two Os' is the (so called) beer again. Texan soda-pop.

At the annual brewers' conference, Mr Budweiser, Mr Heineken and Arthur

Guiness are in the bar. Arthur asks everyone what they're having.

Mr B says "I'll have a bud please."

"A Heineken, of course," says Mr H.

"OK, and I'll have a coke," adds Mr G.

"What, not having a Guinness?"

"Well, no. If you two guys are staying off the beer, I guess I'd better do
the same."
