NGS has released a preliminary (“alpha”) version of the State Plane Coordinate System of 2022 (SPCS2022). The official release of SPCS2022 will occur in 2025, along with other parts of the Modernized National Spatial Reference System (NSRS). This alpha release allows NGS partners and customers to review SPCS2022 and provide feedback, and it includes:

• SPCS2022 web pages
• An alpha NGS Coordinate Conversion and Transformation Tool (NCAT)
• Online interactive map
• Tables of zone definitions and example coordinates
• Maps of linear distortion with performance statistics
• Updated SPCS2022 Policy and Procedures

The alpha content will be updated and augmented as SPCS2022 evolves toward completion.
