Introduction HereinispresentedtheMexicanexperience in relationtothedevelopment of regulation (standards) and methodology, as well as jointprojectswithneighboringcountries. Thedevelopment of standardsisbasicfor a coherent, active and operativeNationalStatistical and GeographicalInformationSystem(SNIEG). TheLaw of SNIEG establishesthattheNationalInstitute of Statistics and Geographymustissueregulations and standards.
Legal Framework Constitution of theMexicanUnitedStates FirstTitle, Chapter I Civil Rights Article 26 B.TheStateshallhave a NationalStatistical and GeographicalInformationSystem, and its data shallbeconsideredofficial data. ItiscompulsoryfortheFederation, the Federal District, states and municipalitiesto use the data producedbytheSystem as stipulated in suchLaw. … TheLawshallestablishtheorganization and operation bases of theNationalStatistical and GeographicalInformationSystemaccordingtotheprinciples of accessibility, transparency, objectivity and independence…
Legal Framework Law of theNationalStatistical and GeographicalInformationSystem (LSNIEG) • Art. 52 LSNIEG TheInstitute,accordingtoArticle 26, Section B of theConstitution of theMexicanUnitedStates, is a publicagencywithtechnical and managementautonomy, with legal personality and ownassets, responsible of theregulation and coordination of theNationalStatistical and GeographicalInformationSystem…

RGNA Geodetic Data The Active NationalGeodetic Network (RGNA) is a set of 22 GPS stationscontinuouslyoperating and generatinggeodetic data in Mexico. The data are available at the INEGI website and usedbyGeodesyinternational agencies. The US NGS uses this data in the OPUS (Online Position UserService) processingservice. TheGeocentricReferenceSystemfortheAmericas (SIRGAS) has beenadopted as theofficialframeworkforseveral South American countries. Marco de Referencia Geodésico
INEGI Processing Center INEGI is a SIRGAS OfficialProcessing Center forthe GPS stations data since 2010. Eachweek, coordinates and theirprecision are deliveredto SIRGAS and tothe regional subcomission of theRegional Reference Frames for North America (NAREF). Thisinformationcontributestothedetermination and maintenance of thegeodeticreferenceframe in North America, LatinAmerica and theCaribbean.
Geoid GeoidHeightModel Giventhewidespread use of GPS forobtainingcoordinatestobeused in topographic and cadastreactivities, itisnecessarytohave a geoidmodelfortheexpression of heightvalues at mean sea level. INEGI ispart of theworkinggrouponGravity and North American Geoid, alongwithCanada and the USA, forthedetermination of aninternationalstandardgeoid, within a subcomission of the International Association of Geodesy.
Geoid Anotherprojectisthe “Monitoring of TemporaryChangesontheGeoidforMexico, Central America and theCaribbean”, financedbythe Pan American Institute of Geography and History (PAIGH), INEGI, NationalGeodeticSurvey and theUniversity of New Brunswick. At present, thecountriesparticipating are: Guatemala, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, DominicanRepublic, Panama, USA, Canada and Mexico.
The North American Atlas Hydrography and itsbasicinfrastructure are essentialelementsforrepresentingtheterritory, and foritsgeographicunderstanding. In a globalizedsituation, theMexicanrealityisbetterunderstoodcomprehensivelyiftheneighboringcountries are included.
The North American Atlas • Theconstruction of a trinationalmapistheresult of theintegration of specifications and standardsthatdemonstratetheinteroperability of at leastthispart of theCartographicSystems of theparticipantcountries. • Thisproject has combinedtheinformation and experience of four agencies: • Natural ResourcesCanada • U.S. Geological Survey • INEGI • Commissionforthe North American EnvironmentalCooperation
The North American Atlas Thismapwasprinted at 1:10,000,000 scale and can beconsulted in a web mapservice.
Building of the Mexico-USA Transboundary Fundamental Data • An on-line mapsystem has beendevelopedfortheseamlesstransboundary fundamental data query; the data can bedownloadedfrom a web platform. http://borderhealth.cr.usgs.gov • Amongtheavailable data you can find: • Binationalintegration of land use • Highwayinfrastructure data • Toponyms • Potentialpollutionsources • Analysis of land use and pollutants • Modelsforinteractiverivernetworks • Waterquantity and quality data • Geological data • Census data
Building of the Mexico-USA Transboundary Fundamental Data • USA – MexicoAerophotographicMosaic • The USA performedtheaerophotographicsurvey of the Rio Grande thatallowedthegeneration of theaerophotographicmosaic. • INEGI reproducedtheaerophotographicmosaic at 1:25,000 scale. • Each country chose • itsgeographic • features and its • geographicnames.
Producing of theMexico-USA Transboundary Fundamental Data • ForjointMexico-USA jointwork in the Rio Grande region, it has beennecessarytocreateallianceswith agencies onbothsides of theborder, such as: • INEGI • UnitedStates Geological Service • BorderUniversityConsortiums - SCERP • International USA- MexicoBorder and WaterCommission • Pan American HealthInstitute • PEMEX (MexicanPetrolleumCo.) • Border 2012 -EPA and SEMAR • As a result of theMexico–USA collaboration, someproductshavebeengeneratedshowingstatisticalinformationonbothsides of theborder.
