WASHINGTON STATE REFERENCE NETWORK AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE CITY OF RENTON AND THE CITY OF SEATTLE
This Washington State Reference Network Agreement (the "AGREEMENT") is made
and entered into by and between THE CITY OF RENTON, herein referred to as
RENTON"] and the City of Seattle, acting as the Central Processing Center for the
Washington State Reference Network by and through Seattle Public Utilities, herein
referred to as (the "SPU"). RENTON and SPU are sometimes referred to individually as
the "PARTY" and collectively as the "PARTIES."
RECITALS
A.Using data from satellites owned by the United States of America, global
positioning systems ("GPS") could provide efficient methods for surveying
and mapping activities related to utility, transportation and other public capital
improvement projects. The speed and accuracy of such technology can be
enhanced by linking GPS continuously operating reference stations ("CORS")
to a central processing center ("CPC") in a real time GPS network
Washington State Reference Network" or "WSRN"). Each CORS will
transmit live GPS satellite data to the CPC for processing, distribution of real
time positioning corrections to members of the WSRN and other authorized
users, archiving, and posting on a web page application.
B.The WSRN was created by SPU as a cooperative effort with other
governmental agencies that will operate CORS within the State of Washington
and selected reference stations in adjacent states and provinces wherein data
from such stations can provide seamless coverage to the borders of
Washington State. The WSRN eliminates duplication of equipment, software
and operational expenditures, while providing greater coverage and accuracy
of real time positioning solutions and data from each CORS. Entities that
operate CORS under this Agreement with the SPU are known as "members"
of the WSRN.
C.Each PARTY has determined that cost savings and other public benefits can
be achieved if entities, such as RENTON, become a member of the WSRN.
D.For purposes of the development of a sub-network of the WSRN in and
around the various regions of Washington State, SPU, WSRN Partners, and
other entities in the regions are entering into individual agreements with SPU
for connection of each of their respective CORS, and/or CORS that they
support.

files available for static GPS post processing. All digital products will be made
available to RENTON if requested. RENTON is NOT responsible for the
