Civil GPS Service Interface Committee

Who is the Civil GPS Service Interface Committee?

The Civil GPS Service Interface Committee (CGSIC) is the recognized worldwide forum for effective interaction between all civil GPS users and the U.S. GPS authorities. The Department of Transportation established CGSIC to exchange information about GPS with the civil user community, respond to the needs of civil GPS users, and integrate GPS into civil sector applications. Information from CGSIC members and meetings is provided to United States GPS authorities for consideration in GPS policy development and GPS service operation.

The U.S. Coast Guard Navigation Center (NAVCEN) coordinates and manages CGSIC in cooperation with the Department of Transportation.

CGSIC meets annually and is open to anyone interested in civil GPS issues. Membership is free, and there is no fee to attend any CGSIC meeting. CGSIC includes members from U.S. and international private, government, and industry user groups.

If you wish to become a contributing participant and agree to be contacted for input on matters pertaining to your organization or expertise, please complete a CGSIC registration form.
