The National Geodetic Survey is a federal agency that is in charge of the United State's coordinate system. They provide the basis for mapping and charting; transportation and communication; and a large number of applications of science and engineering. After the Annual Report of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey became more well known to Government agencies, the NOAA started publishing these Special Publications as well. These reports contain information on the scientific research done by the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey using many different oceanographic methods. This is one of those reports.

The Weather Bureau was originally developed to take meteorological observations at the inland military stations, then alert the Great Lakes and our coasts when major storms were coming. After being part of the United States Army Signal Corps, the bureau jumped for a little less than a century until finally becoming what is now known as the National Weather Service. This is an annual report written to summarize what happened with the weather during that particular year.

The Annual Report of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey began in 1837 with the name changing several times throughout the years. These reports contain information on the different operations that took place, and describe what workers did during that specific year. This is one of those reports.
