NGS Expands Email Subscription Options

NGS uses its “News” emails to inform subscribers about updates to existing products, upcoming NGS-sponsored events, open job opportunities and more.

Previously, these “News” bulletins were only accessible to email subscribers. Now, previously sent “News” bulletins are available on the NGS website as both HTML links to share with others and accessible PDFs to review at a later time. 

These formatting options are consistent with the GPS on Bench Marks Updates, which are all available online as HTML links or accessible PDFs.

NGS website visitors include surveyors, engineers, GIS professionals, mapping users, as well as educators and students. Typically, “News” bulletins have focused on product updates, beta testing opportunities, event registration, and job opportunities. 

Looking ahead, NGS wants to keep improving its communications offerings. What subject areas or type of content would you most like to read about in the future? 

Send your suggestions to NGS.Feedback@noaa.gov.
