18	OPUS-DB benefits Data submittal Faster cheaper Consistent data processing Improve maintenance of NSRS Add GPS on bench marks Archive PLSS corners?
19	OPUS-DB limitations GPS data only PAGES software only No direct tie to adjacent monuments No redundancy Reduced oversight Idiot-proofing? Field logs are not archived
20	OPUS-DB data quality Registered, trained users 4+ hours of static GPS OPUS error checking NGS reviews each submittal Datasheet includes: “Caveat emptor” warning Datasheet includes DQA statistics Agency attribution Coordinates: first, best, average
21	Many Flavors of OPUS Planned OPUS $$$ receiver, hours of data OPUS-DB $$$ receiver, hours of data, share results OPUS Projects Multiple $$$ receivers, share results OPUS Rapid Static $$$ receiver, minutes of data OPUS GIS ¢¢ receiver, minutes of data
