Abstract

As of the Resolution of the United Nations General Assembly A/RES/69/266 "Global Geodetic Reference Framework for Sustainable Development" of February 26, 2015, geodesy began to have a place of relevance beyond its scientific aspects, because it makes visible in a more global aspect the importance of having precise coordinates for multiple activities necessary within the framework of Sustainable Development.
This presentation deals with the development by the National Geographic Institute of the advances and future perspectives in relation to the National Geodetic Reference Framework and exposes the articulation needs for the strengthening of the National Geodesy.
The Reference Frames are materialized through points with precise coordinates and heights, and are essential for sustainable global development, and allow the integration of geospatial information generated by multiple actors. Under this premise, the United Nations promotes the construction of Spatial Data Infrastructures in each country, since they allow carrying out activities such as cartography; execution of civil works; updating of cadastres; hydrocarbon prospecting; land, sea and air navigation; Use of natural resources; and the investigation of natural phenomena associated with climate change and other areas of concern of Earth Sciences.
The activities of the National Geographic Institute account for recent efforts to define the Geodetic Reference Frames of the Argentine Republic, as well as the support of the different services provided by the organization, as a fundamental basis for the development of the Geodetic Infrastructure and Spatial Data of the Argentine Republic (IDERA).
