The National Spatial Reference System (NSRS), managed by the National Geodetic Survey (NGS), is a coordinate system that includes latitude, longitude, elevation, and other values. The NSRS consists of a National Shoreline, the NOAA CORS Network (a system of Global Positioning System Continuously Operating Reference Stations), a network of permanently marked points, and a set of models that describe dynamic geophysical processes affecting spatial measurements. Pre-2022, the system is based on NAD 83 and NAVD 88.

Pre-2022, the system is based on NAD 83 and NAVD 88. In 2022, the NSRS will be modernized with a focus on GNSS and geoid use. It will use the following four frames of reference, each representing a tectonic plate: * North American Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2022 (NATRF2022) * Pacific Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2022 (PTRF2022) * Caribbean Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2022 (CTRF2022) * Mariana Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2022 (MTRF2022) (en)
