# 04E 17N — NGS KU4623 — Nassau County, US NGS triangulation station KU4623 is a first-order control point located in Nassau County, New York at 40.8004°N, 73.7017°W, with published elevation 33.0 meters. As a classical trig station, this benchmark supports high-precision geodetic work including static GNSS sessions for horizontal and vertical control establishment, RTK positioning refinement through known-point occupation, and differential levelling networks. The station's historical recovery and monumentation make it suitable for network densification projects and terrestrial survey tie-in operations. Surveyors should verify current monument condition and accessibility through the National Geodetic Survey database prior to field operations. Coordinates referenced to NAD83.
