CGSIC Bulletin: Upcoming NAVCEN website Launch - URLs

All CGSIC,

Upcoming NAVCEN website Launch - URLs

Dear GovDelivery Subscribers/NAVCEN Website Users,

As a reminder of our previous message, the NAVCEN web team is going to transition the NAVCEN website to a new and enhanced version in the coming months. This change is now planned for the first quarter of 2022.

Of importance is the change of our URLs when we transition to the new website platform. As part of the transition, the URLs will be updated across the site including URLs linked to PDFs. Therefore, URLs from the legacy site will no longer work properly, including bookmarked URLs and URLs used in automatic downloading of data and/or products.  

We have identified the below URL(s) as essential to your continued business. Please keep in mind, that while we are sending the URL(s) in advance, they will not be active until we launch the new website. Once the new website goes live, your URL(s) will be available for re-bookmarking.

GPS Almanacs

Current URLs: https://navcen.uscg.gov/?pageName=gpsAlmanacs

GPS Constellation Status

Current URLs: https://navcen.uscg.gov/?Do=constellationStatus

We will send further communication when the launch date is fixed and will also contact you to notify you when the site goes live.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.  The NAVCEN team is looking forward to the transition and all of the enhancements we will be able to provide. Our goal is to ensure your transition is as seamless as possible.

The NAVCEN team can be reached at our help address: NAVCENWebTeam@uscg.mil.
