Description

The Advanced Photon Source (APS) Upgrade project received its final approval in January 2026, having delivered on its full scope on budget and ahead of schedule. The upgraded facility is now fully operational, and user experiments are underway. During the upgrade project the APS Survey and Alignment team also underwent a major transformation. Along with bringing on new technicians and engineers, we implemented a paradigm shift in our approach to accelerator alignment. This talk will present an overview of the status of survey and alignment at the APS and our plans for future improvement.
